KEY FIGURES
Rakuten Securities has previously offered opportunities to learn knowledge applicable to asset building, such as an online seminar for parents and children on the theme of "pocket money" held in December 2022, and the "Asset Building College® for Family" in June 2024, which allowed participation with children. These financial education programs have been well-received by customers in their 40s and younger, and by parenting generations, who account for over 70% of Rakuten Securities account holders.
Rakuten Securities conducted a survey (Note 2) targeting parents about Kids NISA and financial education for their children's future. The results showed that 84% of respondents answered "very necessary" or "somewhat necessary" when asked if they thought financial knowledge education is necessary for their children, while only 11% answered that there are opportunities to learn financial knowledge at school or at home. In response to these results, Rakuten Securities will hold the "Parent-Child Asset Building School - Summer Vacation Kids NISA Special -" to provide an opportunity for parents and children to engage with money in a fun way during summer vacation. The survey results were published on June 19, 2026 (Fri) under the title "The Realities of Kids NISA and Financial Education."
