Nigeria T-bill auction, 11 January 2007: 91-day at 7.25%, down 15 bps
At the Treasury bill auction dated 11 January 2007, the Central Bank of Nigeria set stop rates on the 91-day bill at 7.25% (down 15 basis points). The rate shown is the stop (issue) rate at the primary auction.
The auction was fully subscribed: bids totalled NGN 10.9bn against NGN 10.0bn on offer, 109% of the amount sought, and NGN 10.0bn was accepted.
Over the past year the 91-day rate has ranged from 3.50% to 11.90%.
A year earlier the 91-day bill cleared at 12.50%, so the government is paying 525 basis points less than twelve months ago.
What this means for NGN 1,000,000
Worked from the published rate · information, not advice
NGN 18,125 in 3 months on the 91-day bill
Put NGN 1,000,000 into the 91-day bill at this auction and you get back NGN 1,018,125 after 3 months: NGN 18,125 in interest before any withholding tax, about NGN 6,042 a month.
That is NGN 375 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.
