Mozambique T-bill auction, 5 August 2026: 364-day at 12.27%, unchanged
At the Treasury bill auction dated 5 August 2026, the Banco de Moçambique cleared the 91-day bill at 12.31% (down 1 basis point), the 182-day bill at 12.26% (down 9 basis points) and the 364-day bill at 12.27% (unchanged). The rate shown is the weighted average subscription rate.
The auction was undersubscribed: bids totalled MZN 8.2bn against MZN 16.3bn on offer, 50% of the amount sought, and MZN 8.2bn was accepted.
Over the past year the 364-day rate has ranged from 12.15% to 12.50%.
A year earlier the 364-day bill cleared at 12.99%, so the government is paying 72 basis points less than twelve months ago.
What this means for MZN 100,000
Worked from the published rate · information, not advice
MZN 12,270 in 12 months on the 364-day bill
Put MZN 100,000 into the 364-day bill at this auction and you get back MZN 112,270 after 12 months: MZN 12,270 in interest before any withholding tax, about MZN 1,022 a month.
That is the same as at the previous auction.
For shorter money: MZN 6,130 on the 182-day bill (6 months), MZN 3,078 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.
