At the Treasury bill auction dated 28 June 2005, the Central Bank of Egypt cleared the 182-day bill at 8.39% (down 81 basis points) and the 364-day bill at 9.10% (down 70 basis points). The rate shown is the weighted average yield of accepted bids.

What this means for EGP 100,000
Worked from the published rate · information, not advice
EGP 9,096 in 12 months on the 364-day bill
Put EGP 100,000 into the 364-day bill at this auction and you get back EGP 109,096 after 12 months: EGP 9,096 in interest before any withholding tax, about EGP 758 a month.
That is EGP 701 less than the same money would have earned at the previous auction.
For shorter money: EGP 4,197 on the 182-day bill (6 months).
The government pays the full amount at maturity; the risk is Egypt’s government not paying, and the money is locked until then.
