Tanzania Treasury bills · auction of 10 July 2024

Tanzania T-bill auction, 10 July 2024: 364-day at 8.41%, up 165 bps

At the Treasury bill auction dated 10 July 2024, the Bank of Tanzania cleared the 364-day bill at 8.41% (up 165 basis points). The rate shown is the weighted average yield of successful bids.

The auction was undersubscribed: bids totalled TZS 100.0bn against TZS 120.5bn on offer, 83% of the amount sought, and TZS 50.0bn was accepted.

Over the past year the 364-day rate has ranged from 6.75% to 12.30%.

A year earlier the 364-day bill cleared at 7.14%, so the government is paying 127 basis points more than twelve months ago.

What this means for TZS 1,000,000

Worked from the published rate · information, not advice

TZS 84,055 in 12 months on the 364-day bill

Put TZS 1,000,000 into the 364-day bill at this auction and you get back TZS 1,084,055 after 12 months: TZS 84,055 in interest before any withholding tax, about TZS 7,005 a month.

That is TZS 16,508 more than the same money would have earned at the previous auction.

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

Kwa Kiswahili

Ukiweka TZS 1,000,000 kwenye hati ya siku 364 kwa riba ya mnada huu, utarudishiwa TZS 1,084,055 baada ya miezi 12: riba ya TZS 84,055 kabla ya kodi yoyote ya zuio, yaani takriban TZS 7,005 kwa mwezi.

Hiyo ni TZS 16,508 zaidi ya kiasi ambacho pesa hiyo hiyo ingepata kwenye mnada uliopita.

Serikali hulipa yote mwishoni mwa muda; hatari ni serikali kushindwa kulipa, na pesa haipatikani hadi muda uishe.
