Reuters reports the Central Bank is planning to raise N134b in treasury bills next week. Last week’s sale saw yields drop to as low as 9% last week a territory close to banks Fixed deposit rates. I’m looking at it and wondering if I would be buying or if I should just wait and see how inter bank rates pan out in the coming weeks.
This is Reuters report though;
Nigeria plans to raise 134.88 billion naira ($832.49 million) in treasury bills with maturities ranging between 3-months and one year on Wednesday, the central bank said on Friday.
The bank said it will issue 34.88 billion naira in the 3-month treasury bills, 48 billion naira in the 6-month paper and 52 billion naira in the one-year debt notes.
