Nearly 1.3 trillion yen flows into new NISA investment trusts, the highest level in about 16 years. The Financial Services Agency has designated February 13th as ``NISA Day,'' a pun on the date.

The 1st to 5th places with the highest net inflows were mainly overseas-related products, such as products made up of overseas stocks and products linked to the U.S. S&P 500 stock index. The total amount was 1,295 billion yen. This is thehighest level in approximately 16 years since August 2007.
