At the Treasury bill auction dated 28 June 2017, the Banco de Moçambique cleared the 91-day bill at 25.34% (up 11 basis points) and the 182-day bill at 26.28% (up 12 basis points). The rate shown is the weighted average subscription rate.
The auction was undersubscribed: bids totalled MZN 4.2bn against MZN 10.0bn on offer, 42% of the amount sought, and MZN 4.2bn was accepted.
Over the past year the 91-day rate has ranged from 12.88% to 25.87%.

What this means for MZN 100,000
Worked from the published rate · information, not advice
MZN 13,140 in 6 months on the 182-day bill
Put MZN 100,000 into the 182-day bill at this auction and you get back MZN 113,140 after 6 months: MZN 13,140 in interest before any withholding tax, about MZN 2,190 a month.
That is MZN 60 more than the same money would have earned at the previous auction.
For shorter money: MZN 6,335 on the 91-day bill (3 months).
The government pays the full amount at maturity; the risk is Mozambique’s government not paying, and the money is locked until then.
