What this means for GHS 10,000

Worked from the published rate · information, not advice

GHS 2,925 in 12 months on the 364-day bill

Put GHS 10,000 into the 364-day bill at this auction and you get back GHS 12,925 after 12 months: GHS 2,925 in interest before any withholding tax, about GHS 244 a month.

That is GHS 34 more than the same money would have earned at the previous auction.

For shorter money: GHS 1,272 on the 182-day bill (6 months), GHS 574 on the 91-day bill (3 months).

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