Egypt T-bill auction, 12 November 2024: 364-day at 26.24%, up 1 bps

At the Treasury bill auction dated 12 November 2024, the Central Bank of Egypt cleared the 91-day bill at 30.41% (up 21 basis points), the 182-day bill at 30.09% (up 17 basis points) and the 364-day bill at 26.24% (up 1 basis point). The rate shown is the weighted average yield of accepted bids.

Demand was strong: bids totalled EGP 164.8bn against EGP 100.0bn on offer, 165% of the amount sought, and EGP 69.0bn was accepted.

Over the past year the 364-day rate has ranged from 25.75% to 32.30%.

What this means for EGP 100,000

Worked from the published rate · information, not advice

EGP 26,241 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 126,241 after 12 months: EGP 26,241 in interest before any withholding tax, about EGP 2,187 a month.

That is EGP 10 more than the same money would have earned at the previous auction.

For shorter money: EGP 15,047 on the 182-day bill (6 months), EGP 7,603 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.
