No cause to fear.

The probability of government to default is very low.
T. Bills is safe.

Government would always pay back.
Even if it involves them borrowing again to pay.

Hello house,

From my search, I saw a detailed CBN rate guide that says commission to buy Treasury Bills for customers is 0.125℅ of the yield. But that was a 2013 document and might be dated.

What is the commissions your bank's are charging you for Treasury bill purchase? Can you also state with bank it is?

Also, are there any other fees associated with Treasury bill purchases?

Thanks in advance.

Diamond bank also debited me 500 naira for TBill's auction commission as well as custody fee ,I never heard of auction commission tho

With10 million Naira, should I invest it in T-bill or buy a house? How much is my ROI after one year if I go for the T-bill?

My simply view:

If buying a house, you would be buying both land and house.
Both appreciates greatly. You could use house for rent if you don't plan moving-in immediately.
N.B. Authenticate the location of the house/land and the genuineness of the documents.
A good location like urban areas would yield better returns and vice versa.

On the other hand. T.Bills would be suitable for cash you have no plans for presently and you want a better returns for it.

In summary, REAL ESTATE gives a better returns than T.bills.

However, I'll suggest you create another thread on Investment because this is for T.bills.
My 2 cents.

Speak to your bankers...

I think its important to put the charges for Tbills into proper perspective...

CBN approved 3 charges for Tbills Auction

Transaction Charge - 0.125% of the Earned Interest

Custody Fee - 0.1% of the Face value *no of days the Tbills is held in a year

Some Banks also charge N100 service charge per transaction

So If was Investing N1m for 91 days at 9.5% the charges will be

Transaction Charge - 0.125/100 * 23,684.93 = 29.61

Custody fee - N1,000,000 *0.1/100 *30/365 *3 = 246.58

Bank Charge per Transaction - N100

Total Charges = 376.18

(Note that The Discount Rate and Tenor also affects the charges)

Could you guys believe that since I started investing in T.Bills with a particular bank branch, nothing has been deducted as custodian charge or commission after a successful bidding?

I have also noticed that in some banks....

Obviously it may be due to the fact that they did not buy the Bills in your name and as such do not have to incur a separate Custody Charge when warehousing the Bills with the custodian..

This practise should be common with the banks that insist on everyone going with their own rates

Hmmm! Was even thinking maybe they don't know about those charges. Anyway, mek I no talk again before dem go wake up.
Re: Treasury Bills In Nigeria by ummitoagirl(f): 10:15am On Sep 05, 2016

In my experience, some banks don't charge any of thes and some banks charge only the custodianship fee. I think that, for secondary market purchases, the charges differ. The Guide to Bank charges should have the authorised charges.

Face value includes gains. You buy TBs at a discount.

Re: Treasury Bills In Nigeria by onair: 3:03pm On Sep 05, 2016
Initially, First Bank charges 0,125% commission fees and 0.10% custodian fees on TBills. But now, a transaction flat rate fee of #100 and 5% VAT has been added to the above two charges. This to me is rather on a high side.

Now 5% VAT on Tbills? What? With the 5% VAT charge by First Bank the advantage that TBills had over Fixed Deposits is defeated as TBills aint got no VAT charges before.

Also, recently in the last one month, First Bank is the most unreliable bank to bid for Tbills as their bids always fail for at least 2 tenors out of the 3 tenors. I dont know if it is intentional. GTB is also unreliable. Yet other banks like Stanbic, Diamond etc are doing well.
