Demand was strong: bids totalled EGP 377.4bn against EGP 100.0bn on offer, 377% of the amount sought, and EGP 109.6bn 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 25,970 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 125,970 after 12 months: EGP 25,970 in interest before any withholding tax, about EGP 2,164 a month.
That is EGP 50 less than the same money would have earned at the previous auction.
For shorter money: EGP 13,553 on the 182-day bill (6 months), EGP 6,705 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.
