zamirikpo: Gbam. I wonder why people think it is rocket science. Our leaders try to make us believe that it is so that they can rob us. I was taught elementary crude processing in Geography in secondary school and that was when technology had not so much advanced to the current levels. 1 Like |

Speedyconnect15: I asked what you think. Not what they said. I asked the question because I think that something is being manipulated somehow. I want to be sure I am not the only one thinking like that. My believe is that when treasury bill rates go up, it means that money supply is going up and then a control mechanism to lock down excess money in circulation is activated. But now that the rates are going down, are we supposed to believe that inflation is on a steady decline? In your opinion, what is the true picture of things? 2 Likes |

TotoNaRubber: True, the inflation is that high. I can hardly survive on my weekly budget, always burn out on day 5. Statistically , things don't measure up here. God help us 1 Like |
Re: Treasury Bills In Nigeria by Speedyconnect15: 11:16am On Mar 08, 2019 |
OvaSabi1: Yes CBN uses that to control money in circulation but then there are other imponderables like the oil price etc. At any rate, I guess inflation rate is still same although I place little or no premium on it. Again, prognosis so far suggests that Tbill rates will further dip. 1 Like |

LEAVE YOUR N10m IN YOUR SAVINGS ACCOUNT OR INVEST IT IN TREASURY BILL CASE STUDY: My people, I know this case has been analyzed severally by the gurus in the house, but I post this to remind those who already know and also to encourage the ones willing to learn what treasury bill, in essence, is really all about as well as how it differs from the money sitting in your savings account. Below is a practical example. N10m IN YOUR SAVINGS ACCOUNT: I have N10m(principle) to invest. If I leave the money in my GTB savings account(which I used to do), GTB would apply 0.3% to my N10m to determine my monthly gain,ROI, interest earned or interest capitalised. So, 0.3% of N10m = N30K monthly....N30K x 12 months = N360K yearly. As long as your principle and interest rate from GTB remain constant for the year, you'll receive N360K from GTB on top of your N10m. Therefore, your income statement on Jan. 1 will show that you're worth N10,360,000 N10m IN TREASURY BILL: We all remember the formula for simple interest, right? Simple interest(I) = Principle(p)xRate(R)xTime(T) OR I= P × R/100 ×T/364 Tenure options: 91 days, 182 days and 364 days. Assumed Rate and principle are 14% and N10m, respectively. 91 DAYS: I= N10m × 14/100 ×91/364, your automatic interest(ROI) = N350K(if you choose 3 Months) 182 DAYS: I= N10m × 14/100 ×182/364, your automatic interest(ROI) = N700K(if you choose 6 months) 364 DAYS: I= N10m × 14/100 ×364/364, your automatic interest(ROI) = N1,400,000(if you choose 1 year) From above, your ROI from Tbill in 3 months is almost the same as your ROI from your savings account in 12 months. In fact, your ROI will be higher if interest rate from Tbill is greater than 14%. BOTTOM LINE: Would you rather leave your N10m in the savings account for ONE YEAR and make extra N360K OR Invest your N10m in Tbill for ONE YEAR and make extra N1,400,000 on top of your invested capital? The choice is yours... PLS NOTE: Consider principle and interest rate used above as random numbers, however calculations are 99.9% accurate. You may verify! 14 Likes 2 Shares |

Re: Treasury Bills In Nigeria by Blanc8(m): 12:12pm On Mar 09, 2019 |
Bluecollarguy: Hello, There is no doubting the fact that T Bills are be eternal investment securities with higher returns than most other money market instruments available in the Nigerian Financial system. However,your calculations and assumptions are quite innacurate and may not potray the exact analysis for practical purposes. As a guide, T Bills can be done from as low as N500,000 & not N50mm as quoted by a commenter. However certain investment buckets in the T bills market have a minimum of such (where you wish to determine or bid your own rate as aginst that to be set by the CBN during sales). For savings accounts, interest is compounded monthly and not in simple interest format. You invest N10mm principal, in month one. By month 2 your Total amount becomes N10mm plus N30k interest. Therefore when calculating the interest for month 2, you no longer use N10mm but N10,030,000 as principal and incrementally so on till month 12. You should be receiving some few thousand above your straight line calculation of N30k monthly time 12 months. Also , T bills rate are guided by the MPR (Monetary Policy rate , which Is at 14% today). The are always lower than this rate, once they are issued by the CBN. T Bills are priced based on Tenors rather than amounts. So the interest rate for a 91 days differs from that of a 182 and 364 days (The lower the tenors, the lower the rates). Also, unlike T Bills, Savings deposits could be negotiated (on a fixed term) & these rate could sometimes rival T bills in some banks, depending on the liquidity appetite for such banks at the time of your proposed investment. T Bills have an advantage of having no WHT (Witholding Tax) payments, so you get your full interest, tax free, except for some few fees of less than N1,000 charged for transfer and monitoring. In all, I'd go for a T Bill for higher returns, longer tem investment purpose and funds security. But a fixed deposit for shorter periods and if the funds needs to show on my account statements for related purposes. 4 Likes |

Re: Treasury Bills In Nigeria by Nobody: 8:17pm On Mar 09, 2019 |
@Blanc8, I do welcome your observation, but again I did state above that my calculation is valid if bank rate and your principle remain the same; i.e N10m for the whole year, hence you may divest or withdraw your N30K each month instead of it being compounded, and in the subsequent month 0.3% to same N10m. I could have shed more light on my write-up but didn't want it to be voluminous. Also, in case you didn't notice, I applied 14% to all tenures(91, 182, and 364 days, respectively)... my approach is practical not objective. In the real, same rate doesn't apply to all tenures... the purpose of my message is to encourage folks to invest in Tbill because of its long term benefits rather than let their money sit in the bank. All in all, I appreciate your contribution...we live to learn everyday! Blanc8: 4 Likes |
Re: Treasury Bills In Nigeria by Nobody: 8:27pm On Mar 09, 2019 |
OgogoroFreak: I totally got your point, besides I know the rate for all 3 tenures are NEVER the same. My approach is practical, not objective. In other words, I used 14% as an arbitrary number to convey a message, which is to convince potential investors that Tbill has more long term benefits than the money sitting in our bank account. But you're absolutely right, I should have applied befitting rates to all tenures, but the application of 14% was intentional, hopefully the message is well understood. 7 Likes |

TotoNaRubber:How does this sound to you! You spend 30k daily to live a normal life? What is a normal life? Which standard are you using? In a particular vicinity, you can get a plate of food at 400 naira. Same plate may sell at 1500 naira just few kilometers away. The difference may just be the environment both are sold and not even the taste. Several other examples abound. You said normal life as though you were referring to a particular thing like 2015 HYUNDAI ELENTRA. 6 Likes |

And you are right about omonile lawyer post here on NL (property moderator), he has dropped a lot of insights all for free that most lawyers would hoard. Anyone who wants to buy landed properties should take time to go though his threads. for example people rush C/O properties forgetting they will need to present tax receipts of both Seller and buyer when processing governors consent plus many more inisghts.... Before I was a novice, but with what I have read over the years from his thread, I can do a quite decent job at scrutinizing landed docs. all the same landed investment sha is one dicey something in lagos ![]() 1 Like 1 Share |
