A fraudster is likely working with an insider in First bank to try to compromise your account.

If I were you, I'd move all my money out of that account for now.
That was how one Banker was telling me to do "mandate update" on my account. Why exactly would I need that?

Wise decision.

You get 19.5 easy and 20% if you're lucky.

On 10m, you earn 50k more on 20% than on 19.5 but 19.5 would have given you 74k interest in two weeks while waiting for 20%.

The only real risk with holding sovereign assets denominated in their local currency is the currency losing value.

The risk of you not getting your funds doesn't exist, cos the government doesn't need to look for naira to pay you, they can simply just type in numbers to create trillions.

They recently created 40trn that way via ways and means and intervention funds.

No court can arrest them.

The only restraint is the more they print, the less the currency is worth.

5m during covid was almost $15,000, today it's only worth about $3300.
Needless to say our money is at huge risk.

In a country where businesses are shipping off in droves for those that are healthy and can still move. Those that are not are folding up, makes me wonder who the government are going to tax to pay for all this debt.

Revenue is not even something to talk about, just servicing external debt alone has put a massive hole in income not to mention the fact that the debt keeps on rising.

Now, how is the government going to pay for all this huge internal debt? Definitely Printing more money.

It is safe to say by the time this current administration leaves power the Naira will be far more worthless than it is currently.

This treasury bills is just another indirect form of tax. The government is not giving us more money rather they are actually taking a certain portion of our money. Those who lend government money are less taxed when compared to those who do not (those who put money in savings account or hide it inside some suitcase)

In some countries, treasury bills is really not an investment.

If I may answer this you can get up to 12, 14, 28,etc days. The Tenure are way flexible. If you are not investing in a year instrument in tbills, please use the secondary market for your own sake.

The risk certainly exists, but it's not a risk of whether they will pay the 10m you invest for instance, they certainly will, they don't need to look for money to pay, they don't even need to expend any ink or paper to print physical notes, the computer program that will credit you is running already. It's just waiting for Date.Now() to equal your maturity date, then it updates your balance in the database while the CBN people might have even forgotten they borrowed any money.

The risk now is whether when that 10m comes, it will be worth something.
If instead of buying a car two years ago with 10m, I decided to buy 2-year savings bond, the entire coupons and capital from that investment cannot cover 70% of th cost of buying that same model today.

That's the real risk, but it's not peculiar to Tbills investors, it affects everyone who earns in the local currency. That's why you see people who aren't even Tbills investors dey vex pass T-bills investors, cos their money has lost so much value that they need 750k to buy just one ram.


It's why pension contributors are sort of being short changed, they celebrate 15% CAGR on a currency that does like -30% annually.

The point to take here is no one should hold more than 50% of their assets in instruments that have no potential for capital appreciation, if they're serious about building wealth.

Stocks, real estate, precious metals(gold and the likes), FCY debt instruments, etc should get in the mix cos they have the potential for capital appreciation and thus are great hedging instruments.

Yeah. The offer was quite small, but I guess I was overly optimistic mine will scale through.

I hope sec markets are still available sha. Will try first thing tomorrow.
Re: Treasury Bills In Nigeria by Streetinvestor2: 12:02pm On Jun 18
The banks are not sending some individual bids through them so that you can buy secondary market from them.And I have told them I will not buy any secondary market. The difference between the primary offer and secondary offer by bank is big income to the banks.
If you don't get me primary market. I move my cash to another bank or into something else.I can't be your mugu

First of all, I am not the author of the attached schedule. It's the DMO who is incharge and that's the actual payment date.

Secondly, that some people chose not to do their work when and how they should do it doesn't not make it correct.

Thirdly, saying the payment is usually between 20-23 is not correct because apart from the first coupon which I didnt collect early because there was a mistake on my account and it did not deliver, this is the the only one I am getting this late. At most, I have get it on the 19th of Dec. Yet, that does not negate the fact that the official payment date is 16th June or Dec except that date false on weekend or public holiday. I just don't want to litter here with proofs. If not I would posted all the alert from June 2021 till date for you to see that you are not correct or that your bank takes time to credit you. Your usual delays for upto 20-23 is not from CSCS.
