１９年度末個人金融資産、１１年ぶり減　コロナ影響、株・投信２桁目減り

　日銀が２５日発表した資金循環統計によると、２０１９年度末の個人（家計部門）の金融資産残高は前年度末比０．５％減の１８４５兆円となった。世界的な新型コロナウイルス感染拡大から株価が急落した影響が大きく、リーマン・ショック当時の０８年度末以来１１年ぶりの減少となった。
　内訳は、今年２月以降の株価下落が響き、株式等が１１．９％減の１７８兆円、投資信託も１１．７％減の６３兆円といずれも２桁の目減り。過半を占める現・預金は２．１％増の１０００兆円と年度末ベースで最高を更新した。（2020/06/25-12:12）

Financial assets held by households in Japan at the March 31 end of fiscal 2019 logged the first year-on-year drop in 11 years, Bank of Japan data showed Thursday.
   The household financial assets fell 0.5 pct from a year before to 1,845 trillion yen, down for the first time since fiscal 2008, during which the collapse of U.S. investment bank Lehman Brothers triggered a global financial crisis.
   The latest asset decrease reflected stock price plunges stemming from the coronavirus pandemic.
   Of the total balance, shareholdings fell 11.9 pct to 178 trillion yen, and investment trusts declined 11.7 pct to 63 trillion yen.
   Meanwhile, cash and deposits, which make up a majority of the household financial assets, grew 2.1 pct to 1,000 trillion yen, a record high for the end of a fiscal year.
