Worked from the published rate · information, not advice

NGN 70,000 in 6 months on the 182-day bill

Put NGN 1,000,000 into the 182-day bill at this auction and you get back NGN 1,070,000 after 6 months: NGN 70,000 in interest before any withholding tax, about NGN 11,667 a month.

That is NGN 1,250 less than the same money would have earned at the previous auction.

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