Nigeria Treasury bills · auction of 30 June 2011

Nigeria T-bill auction, 30 June 2011: 364-day at 9.01%, down 69 bps

At the Treasury bill auction dated 30 June 2011, the Central Bank of Nigeria set stop rates on the 91-day bill at 7.79% (down 75 basis points), the 182-day bill at 8.37% (down 82 basis points) and the 364-day bill at 9.01% (down 69 basis points). The rate shown is the stop (issue) rate at the primary auction.

Demand was strong: bids totalled NGN 243.7bn against NGN 131.9bn on offer, 185% of the amount sought, and NGN 131.9bn was accepted.

Over the past year the 364-day rate has ranged from 4.20% to 10.99%.

A year earlier the 364-day bill cleared at 3.90%, so the government is paying 511 basis points more than twelve months ago.

What this means for NGN 1,000,000

Worked from the published rate · information, not advice

NGN 90,100 in 12 months on the 364-day bill

Put NGN 1,000,000 into the 364-day bill at this auction and you get back NGN 1,090,100 after 12 months: NGN 90,100 in interest before any withholding tax, about NGN 7,508 a month.

That is NGN 6,900 less than the same money would have earned at the previous auction.

For shorter money: NGN 41,840 on the 182-day bill (6 months), NGN 19,475 on the 91-day bill (3 months).

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