1
NISA, Japan's tax-free investment scheme, had attracted nearly 30 million accounts by the end of last year.
2
Its rapid growth is allowing the government to use the scheme for broader policy goals beyond promoting investment.

4
People aged 18 and over can open only one NISA account.
5
Normally, profits from shares or investment funds are taxed at around 20%.
6
Under NISA, however, investment gains and dividends within the permitted limits are tax-free.
7
This has driven a rapid rise in NISA accounts in recent years, particularly among younger people.
8
In July, a bill to expand NISA was submitted to Parliament.
9
It proposes allowing government bonds for individual investors to be held in NISA accounts, along with inheritance tax incentives.
10
If adopted, the measures could make government bonds more attractive as the Bank of Japan gradually reduces its bond holdings.
11
NISA has also helped curb upward pressure on the yen, as many Japanese investors use the scheme to buy overseas shares and investment funds.
12
The revamped NISA scheme took off in 2024, after the government sharply raised investment limits, made the tax-free period permanent,
13
and introduced more flexible rules.
14
There are also viewpoints expressing concern that the Japanese government could influence the market through these nearly 30 million NISA accounts,
15
and policies regarding NISA could directly impact nearly 30 million voters.

Sobre esta lección

¿Qué es la Técnica de Shadowing?

Shadowing es una técnica de aprendizaje de idiomas respaldada por la ciencia, desarrollada originalmente para la formación de intérpretes profesionales y popularizada por el políglota Dr. Alexander Arguelles. El método es simple pero poderoso: escuchas audio en inglés nativo y lo repites en voz alta de inmediato, como una sombra que sigue al hablante con solo 1-2 segundos de retraso. A diferencia de la escucha pasiva o los ejercicios de gramática, el shadowing obliga a tu cerebro y músculos de la boca a procesar y reproducir simultáneamente patrones de habla reales. Las investigaciones muestran que mejora significativamente la precisión de la pronunciación, la entonación, el ritmo, el habla conectada, la comprensión auditiva y la fluidez al hablar, convirtiéndola en una de las metodologías más efectivas para la preparación del IELTS Speaking y la comunicación en inglés en el mundo real.
