I have tried to refrain myself from talking so as not to increase the hard work of Investment One representatives on this thread but then let's not try shut complaints... We have been bringing complaints and issues of investment here for solutions let alone investment heard of from here. Lots of people have complained here about StanbicIBTC, United Capital, FBNQUEST and the like. Even without representative customers with better experience have explained things to them. If you have a particular way to deposit and make the money enter his account immediately you let him know. If you deposits take more than a day or two to be credited, you let him know. Except on very rare occasions you don't make deposits in bank and start going mailing them or calling customer service to credit you account. Most times your customer service personnel are even clueless when faced with challenges. Please advice your firm appropriately. 5 Likes 1 Share |

Re: Treasury Bills In Nigeria by ahiboilandgas: 3:18pm On Aug 16, 2020 |
Why are Nigerians oversea investing in Naira asset ....this means instant lost ....the cbn has devalued the naira over and over again and currently confused on what the rate should be or how to stabilize it.....unless u are sending in more to build a retirement home or legacy home or u plan moving back to nigeria to be spending Naira or stocks that bring returns above devaluation risk and inflations .....it make no investment sense......are there no investments oppurntiies in develop countries or the reward is low .....tb rate is supposed to be around 18 percent now cos of currency swings and inflations .... 7 Likes |
Re: Treasury Bills In Nigeria by ahiboilandgas: 3:25pm On Aug 16, 2020 |
For oversea residents returns must be above 30 for u to beat devaluation risk in unstable nation like Nigeria ....it even better keeping ur saving in hard currency untill retirement......once u convert to Naira u would have earned all those fancy tb rates of 18 and stock markets returns of 15 bandied by the Nigeria economy....example if i have 100k dollars in 2013 =16m and just be adding 1000 dollars ever year by now i will 107,0000 dollars ....if am moving back to Nigeria that wil be over 50m to retire on....but if i invested the money in Nigeria money markets it will be around 33m by now 13 Likes |

ahiboilandgas: Oga Ahib making so much sense since 1960 ![]() More power to your elbow, sir. So in a nutshell, you feel it's safer to send such USD fund to a Nigerian domiciliary account than converting same to naira to invest in Mutual Funds? 3 Likes |
Re: Treasury Bills In Nigeria by seyisanya(m): 4:04pm On Aug 16, 2020 |
ahiboilandgas:Sir, you actually answered the question in your last sentence. I think the major issue is that the return is low. However, using the current reality as a yardstick, I feel that low return might be better than whatever is currently available in Nigeria except for selected equities that will beat inflation and devaluation in the long run. Another challenge is that most Nigerians in diaspora don't have proper documentation in place which makes it difficult to invest in their country of abode. Hence, they'll rather repatriate such funds to Nigeria for investment purpose. 4 Likes |
Re: Treasury Bills In Nigeria by Philantropists: 4:13pm On Aug 16, 2020 |
I intend to earn interests from Nigeria due to interest rates in my location is 0.4% with a limit of $25,000 with most financial institutions and they require declaring the capital investments at the end of every tax year which is not good. As you said, naira is unstable. Maybe its best to hold the foreign currency until there is stability in the market. Every foreign currency i convert to naira stays in naira or put back in naira real estate/business. ahiboilandgas: 3 Likes |

Unstable currency has been a major concerns for investors /business people ...this can wipe off your gains of 10 years within 10 minutes or a cbn pronunciations ......investor thrive to keep asset in safe items like real estate in london,paris dubai etc or gold or pound or dollars generating stocks etc ..then the risk takers look for high rewarding investments in unstable currency like naira and do only short term ....in oil industry players that do import to product normal request foreign exchange guarantees from fgn/cbn or they wouldnt import ...like wise smart fdi like the power plant firm requesting forex/price garauntee from fgn of 25 m dollars monthly ... |

Re: Treasury Bills In Nigeria by Ibrahim505(m): 6:16pm On Aug 16, 2020 |
Just as naira is undergoing a series of devaluation, those saving their money in form of USD should be careful as the fed is currently printing more dollars and raining it to their citizens making USD at high risk of devaluation. 6 Likes 1 Share |

ahiboilandgas: Oga Ahib Thanks for the advice for Nigerian in diaspora. I am always looking forward to reading your comments on investment here, u do make sense a lot Meanwhile, I understand recently that some banks in Nigeria are struggling to pay out foreign currency saved in domicillary account which could be a concern for the account owner . I don’t know how true is this but if it true, I think Nigerian in diaspora should be careful depositing money in their domicillary account 1 Like |

Re: Treasury Bills In Nigeria by TotoNaRubber: 10:28pm On Aug 16, 2020 |
Do you mean stanbic only allows you to do electronic transfer for funds in dom accs deposited as cash? Banks may get reduced inflow of forex but it will be illegal not to pay you according to cbn regulations. ahiboilandgas: |

Re: Treasury Bills In Nigeria by realking(m): 6:53am On Aug 17, 2020 |
U are 100% correct sir. Banks have excess FCY as cash in Nigeria but does not have it offshore for settlement. U can withdraw as much as u can as cash in Nigeria provided u have it in ur account but u can only spend a capped limit for oversea transactions. TotoNaRubber: |

For local investors holding dollars while the black markets rates is tempting. 475 which is more of a speculative rate ....the cbn has stopped funding bdc and bta and pta once international air travel open up with thousand of Nigerians coming back for Christmas and other cbn will start funding those segement too according to them .....this will make price crash tp circa 400 ....a wopping lost of 75 naira .......dont invest and sleep....your eye ,ears,and nose should be on 3 time . . Crude prices,covid vaccine(international travels) and cbn/bdc policey........we in Abcon anticipate a loss of 20 bn in between ...........non greedy local investor that had dollars at 360 has sold off at 470 and waitng for 400 naira one to be available by nov/dec to stock up........... while greedy investors are hoping to reach 520 first ......surely they will get burnt it a circle .... 3 Likes |

The worse of the lot is buying and keeping in a dom account at this time, it will end in tears for many people because withdrawal will be a problem. As Ahib has said, don't be too greedy, invest but don't sleep on it. ahiboilandgas: 2 Likes |
