By contrast, the final asset value from contributing ¥30,000 a month for 40 years is estimated at approximately ¥27.52 million.
As another comparison of contribution conditions, contributing ¥30,000 a month for 20 years would result in approximately ¥7.42 million including interest in a bank deposit paying around 0.3% a year, while investing through the new NISA at an annual return of 3% would result in approximately ¥9.81 million. The report says that future asset values differ depending on whether the funds are invested and on the rate of return.
