Re: Treasury Bills In Nigeria by Seun(m): 9:32pm On Mar 17, 2013
Cargoed: Please is there a 30day auction and can i rollover, i am expecting 30day auction to be at least 3.5% is this so
The lowest duration is 91 days at a current maximum rate of 9.2% per year which is equivalent to 2.22% in 91 days. You will get up to 2.22% of your money back immediately when you buy the 91 day tbills. If you buy the 182 day tbills, that's up to 9.449% per year 4.618% in 182 days. If you buy the 182 day tbills, you will get up to 4.618% of your money back immediately. The rate on 364 day tbills is 9.998%, so you will get up to that same percentage back immediately if you buy the 364 day tbill. That's how I understand it. Hope this helps.

I think that is incredibly slow for a private investor, with low capital say less than 1mil. i need a vehicle that can give me my money back + the interest after 30days. So that i can re-invest it.

Not being rude but if you cant tie your money down for 90 days then you are far from being an investor. You are more like a gambler.

Please people in the know let us know the rates at the end of todays auction.

The rates are too low for monies less than 1 mil.

Imagine you put in 400k for 3 months (91 days) and @ the end all the interest you can get is less than 10k...

Think about it.

Thankyou moshoodn thats the pain am talking about, but i guess due to the almost risk free situation it is well priced.
@Seun Lets talk about doing it for 90days what will be the return if i say use 400k but instead of putting it all in i do it every month for the next 90days. but in the process every month i adding my personal N6k what will be my return after 10yrs and what will be my interest at month 87?

Lets use a fixed interest of 7.5%

So 400k/3= 133k
133k + 6k for the next 90days = Jan - March Inv A Month 3
133k + 6k for the next 90days = Feb - April Inv B Month 4
133k + 6k for the next 90dyas = March - May Inv c Month 5
Inv A (Including Interest) + 6k for the next 90days = April - June Inv D month 6
Inv B (Including Interest) + 6k for the next 90days = May - July Inv e month 7
Inv C (Including Interest) + 6k for the next 90days = June - August Inv f Month 8

PLEASE ANYONE HELP DO THE MATHS what will be my return after 10yrs and what will be my interest at month 87?

I'm equally confused, but I think they may have shifted the auctions forward because of the holidays.

Fbn always ask me to submit my application form and funds, the Tuesday before the auction. So you see, I need to have an idea of the auction date.

Simply leave a standing instruction with your bank to cover any bid date. Do this through your ACCOUNT OFFICER at the bank. If you don't have one yet, request for one immediately. He/she will be your contact who will arrange for your TBs bid anytime there's one. However, make sure you ALWAYS have enough funds in your account for the transaction.
Re: Treasury Bills In Nigeria by Nobody: 8:38am On Mar 30, 2013
Say, if I invest 100k in tbills for a year, what would my interest be like?

You also pay a COT of 0.5% at the end of the month. So the total cost is 0.625%, out of the 2.N% you get on 90 day tbills.
Re: Treasury Bills In Nigeria by feelamong(m): 11:51am On Apr 02, 2013
