At the Treasury bill auction dated 6 April 2026, the Bank of Ghana cleared the 91-day bill at 4.82% (up 1 basis point), the 182-day bill at 6.71% (up 9 basis points) and the 364-day bill at 9.84% (up 7 basis points). The rate shown is the weighted average interest-rate equivalent.
Bids totalled GHS 3.2bn and GHS 2.9bn was accepted, 93% of what was bid.
Over the past year the 364-day rate has ranged from 9.35% to 18.65%.
A year earlier the 364-day bill cleared at 18.84%, so the government is paying 900 basis points less than twelve months ago.
What this means for GHS 10,000
Worked from the published rate · information, not advice
GHS 984 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 10,984 after 12 months: GHS 984 in interest before any withholding tax, about GHS 82 a month.
That is GHS 7 more than the same money would have earned at the previous auction.
For shorter money: GHS 336 on the 182-day bill (6 months), GHS 120 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.
