Treasury Bills Information Wanted

Why don't you go and ask the fellows at access bank.    They are dropping 10% for a 3mth coupon. I believe these investments are much better than investing in stocks in general its just that the average man on the street is not well  informed about this alternative risk investment. And should be used to balance out or hedge any portfolio. I posted something like this and no one seamed to know what i was talking about, i called it money machine. Because if you work out a good compound interest on them they could turn out to be your own personal (ATM) cashpoint.    no need for yahoo,  after a continous 5yr investment it just spirals out of control as far as the asset continues to perform. Right now it has out performed the USdollar in the past 2yrs. Although i have not compared it to local inflation that will be the test. Anyway all i need is for it to outperform gold then we know we are talking    Hola at me if you need to discuss this one to one, 

@ Poske

Do you have investments in Treasury Bills through access bank?

Treasury bill should actually be the LOWEST return that you can get. There are definitely far better options out there.

If however you are risk averse, then stick with Treasury bills.

@ALL

i think you have all made good contributions and like poske is nudging, we should take a second look at this investment window. it is not so popular with individuals in nigeria but i do know a lot of dicount houses deal on it and are still in business!!!

i will not go so far as poske to say it is a cash machine but i don't also agree wit wanajo that it gives u the lowest returns, it shld do beta than savings, term depo and govt bonds on an annualised basis

if any member of the house can research the modalities of getting into this investment vehicle in nigeria, (i nominate poske since he is enthusiastic about it) i.e. minimum iinvestment, which firms (access bank?) offer individuals the opportunity to tap in etc and share with the house, it might not be a bad idea to try it out for a few years

cheers y'all
