Tbills are better (better rates, shorter durations, & no tax), but bonds are more affordable. You can invest as little as 10,000 naira in bonds.

I think most banks say 1 million, but some banks have been said to accept 500,000 naira or less.

Visit your bank and ask them about it. They'll tell you everything you need to know about buying Tbills through them.

Wow! That's a lot. Shorter maturity and duration than bonds. It's for big boys o. But the rates are attractive.

I have been following this thread quietly because I also dont know about the subject yet. Thanks for the contribution but it was very difficult task for me to comprehend your post due to so many contractions and abbreviations.
