TB 100k minimum banks I know:

Diamond, Stanbic, UBA, First Bank.

You need to have an account (with) from which the funds will be debited.

I left an instruction with my account officer in GT bank,150k for 182 days but he said there wasnt an auction this week that I would have to wait till next week. I had an unpleasant experience with my tbills with first bank hence my opting for GT. they do not give me rates at cbn stop rates.. Please,can someone recommend any other bank credible and reliable for Tbills than these two??

How do someone currently living outside the country buy treasury bills? Suppose I operate a first bank or GTB account.

I need to terminate my fix deposit in few days but the maturity date is next month,Can someone tell me if i will still have the full interest or what step do i take to avoid the big charge
definately u wil be penalised ten percent deduction from your interest or more depending on ur bank
Re: Treasury Bills In Nigeria by freeman67: 4:56pm On Oct 20, 2014
it depends on the bank and the days you have left.
The likes of GTB will just remove their VAT on your accrued interest for the number of days your money was fixed there but be sure not to request for interest on the remaining number of days left for you Fixed Deposit to complete.
Stanbic has its own format like some number of days attract 100%,75%,50%,25% and 0% penalties depending on how early you terminate against the original contract.

What is the rate (APR or normal rate)?
Is it compounded daily?

normal rate and it is usually per annum so if u r buy 91day it divided by 4 182days it divided by 2 so rate on tbills are per anum but it can be compounded if u do a roll over provide u give instruction to your bank

what Interest would 500k give me for 91, 182 and 364 days? And the rates ? Which banks Would you recomend?
Re: Treasury Bills In Nigeria by obiak4(m): 2:54pm On Oct 22, 2014
petikal:
All rates are calculated annually. That is, divide 365 by the days you wish to invest; then divide the corresponding interest rate by the result.

1mil investment for 91 days at 9.95% rate:

Step 1: 365/91 = 4.01
Step 2: 9.95/4.01 = 2.48%
Step 3: 1mil * (2.48/100) = N24,800

For 182 days on 2mil at 10.3% rate:

Step 1: 365/182 = 2.00
Step 2: 10.3/2 = 5.15%
Step 3: 2mil * (5.15/100) = N103,000


hope u find this calculation easy and simple@iceman the rates flutuates bro so u can use this simple calculation to know what you wil get hope have been able to hel

Thanks. I don't have a problem with the calculation. I know interest is compounded daily, weekly, monthly, biannual or annually. And the effective interest and rate of return is all I wanted to know. and do you know if banks have fixed deposit for $ account?

Fixed deposits (FD) and TBills are quite different. See previous posts.

TBill's effective interest is purely based on your tenor, and there are 3 tenors. The rates increase slightly on longer tenors. Visit CBN website for recent tenor rates.

If you wish to compound your interest, then prior to the end of your tenor, you have to issue instructions in advance to your bank to roll over your capital plus interest - assuming the interest is significant. Some banks do multiples of N20,000, some above/below. So, if your interest is lower than your bank's acceptable multiple, then you have to either top it up or wait for another tenor.

As for FD's on $ account, GTB comes to mind. For a country as big as Nigeria, I'm sure you'll find other banks that do.
