Egypt T-bill auction, 15 November 2022: 364-day at 18.05%, down 1 bps

At the Treasury bill auction dated 15 November 2022, the Central Bank of Egypt cleared the 91-day bill at 17.91% (up 50 basis points), the 182-day bill at 18.07% (up 40 basis points) and the 364-day bill at 18.05% (down 1 basis point). The rate shown is the weighted average yield of accepted bids.

Demand was strong: bids totalled EGP 129.5bn against EGP 34.5bn on offer, 375% of the amount sought, and EGP 85.1bn was accepted.

Over the past year the 364-day rate has ranged from 13.15% to 18.06%.

What this means for EGP 100,000

Worked from the published rate · information, not advice

EGP 18,049 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 118,049 after 12 months: EGP 18,049 in interest before any withholding tax, about EGP 1,504 a month.

That is EGP 11 less than the same money would have earned at the previous auction.

For shorter money: EGP 9,036 on the 182-day bill (6 months), EGP 4,477 on the 91-day bill (3 months).

The government pays the full amount at maturity; the risk is Egypt’s government not paying, and the money is locked until then.
