Tanzania T-bill auction, 2 July 2025: 364-day at 8.42%, down 30 bps
At the Treasury bill auction dated 2 July 2025, the Bank of Tanzania cleared the 364-day bill at 8.42% (down 30 basis points). The rate shown is the weighted average yield of successful bids.
Demand was strong: bids totalled TZS 163.5bn against TZS 75.6bn on offer, 216% of the amount sought, and TZS 82.0bn was accepted.
Over the past year the 364-day rate has ranged from 8.41% to 12.99%.
A year earlier the 364-day bill cleared at 6.75%, so the government is paying 166 basis points more than twelve months ago.
What this means for TZS 1,000,000
Worked from the published rate · information, not advice
TZS 84,152 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 1,084,152 after 12 months: TZS 84,152 in interest before any withholding tax, about TZS 7,013 a month.
That is TZS 3,015 less 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 1,084,152 baada ya miezi 12: riba ya TZS 84,152 kabla ya kodi yoyote ya zuio, yaani takriban TZS 7,013 kwa mwezi.
Hiyo ni TZS 3,015 pungufu 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.
