Labadi69: Yes I have a Stockbroking account with them for the part 10 years, it was a subsidiary of GTB. Formerly known as GT Asset Management before they sold through Management Buyout due to CBN policy. I also have a money market fund Investment and guaranteed income Investment with them I also do business with Stanbic IBTC Asset Management, FSDH Asset Management and FBN Asset Management. You can confirm from all these organizations if I am paid to share my experience concerning their services. As a matter of fact I don't have investment in any of the Finance houses, I only get loans and other credit facilities from them Getting N10 loan from them is different from Investing my N10 with them 9 Likes 1 Share |

omotola90: Not classified as deposits. Micro finance banks, commercial banks and merchant banks accept deposits, reason why such deposits are insured by NDIC. |

15% is high, I recently got a single digit facility from FBN Private banking. emmanuelewumi: |
Re: Treasury Bills In Nigeria by emmanuelewumi(m): 1:44pm On Oct 06, 2021 |
XiaoLi: What did you use as collateral? I don't think 15% is high. It is a 6 months facility, that can be rolled over. Assuming you got a loan of N1 million, you are expected to pay back the N1 million in 6 months and an interest of N75,000. |

Labadi69: This is not correct. I feel it would have been better to first of all look at the company he spoke about and bring up questions where you have doubts. That's we do here most times. Every opportunity presented here is tested and if it passed the test, it sails through. A lot of people have genuine information and keep it to themselves to the disadvantage of those in genuine need of it. That is however not the case of the person you are referring to. Personally, I am very weary of any financial app that is not duely/completely registered with all the required regulating agencies, does not have a known office where I can bare my mind when I encounter hiccups with their app and does not have a reasonable track record I can refer to. I am not in any way saying that these conditions are shock proof of avoiding misbehaviour from business owners. However, due diligence have to be done. 15 Likes |

Mine is a year facility which can be rolled over, I used liquid asset as collateral, the interest received from the liquid asset will be used to service the facility and the interest will be charged based on how much i use in a month. Assuming i use 1M in a month, interest will only be charged on the 1M. emmanuelewumi: 1 Like |
Re: Treasury Bills In Nigeria by XiaoLi: 2:24pm On Oct 06, 2021 |
Infact they advised I leave any liquid asset in USD as i can always use that to get a facility in Naira at thesame interest rate which the USD was fixed, this way the USD will always be preserved. emmanuelewumi: |
Re: Treasury Bills In Nigeria by emmanuelewumi(m): 2:26pm On Oct 06, 2021 |
XiaoLi: That is how overdraft facility works, if you used your fixed deposit as a collateral you can get interest rate of 9% or below depending on what the bank is paying on your fixed deposit |

XiaoLi: You are financially literate, if not the bank won't give you a loan. Overdraft is good for business people, with turnover in their accounts. Interest will be calculated on the amount drawn down, when funds are in the account interest stops counting |
Re: Treasury Bills In Nigeria by XiaoLi: 3:17pm On Oct 06, 2021 |
You are correct at the bolded, one of the advantages too is no interest will be charged on amount withdrawn and paid back in less than a month. emmanuelewumi: 2 Likes |

On bonds/TBs.... Looking at rates across other nations and moreso the lowest and highest paying countries, one thing stands out... Countries with the highest paying bonds generally have worse performing currencies..... Goes to show there's no free lunch anywhere... Now, almost all currencies have a baseline devaluation rate... For 'strong currencies', it usually averages between 1.5% - 4% pa... This works out that for some currencies, folks are actually lose money when they buy government bonds at some rates. In Nigeria, TB rates of the past few years which was above 13% at a point... One would need to ask why the CBN kept it that low. Cos they were practically printing money at that rate to pay up portfolio investors... The issue with availing briefcase investors such high rate even on the premise of injecting money into the economy is that most times (moreso a country like Nigeria) there's little or no impact on the real economy... It's just the rich getting richer- banks, pension funds e.t.c while the poor populace bear the brunt of the inevitable inflation caused by nonstop money printing. That money just keeps rotating in banks without actually changing hands for value hence there's no real impact on the economy. 1 Like 1 Share

Re: Treasury Bills In Nigeria by jedisco(m): 5:51am On Oct 07, 2021 |
The funny thing is that it that TBs were always oversubscribed yet CBN kept the rates extremely high... Some might argue it was a chicken/egg situation and it's difficult to say which caused the other... Now I'm not an economist, but basic principles will state that if I'm a lender and too people are lining up to borrow from me, the sensible thing will be to reduce my borrowing rate and save the money... But maybe folks see things differently... Already, most pension funds e.tc are constrained by law and would partly remain stuck with TB or bonds irrespective of the rate... So why did the rates remain that high... Another brunt is that everyone had to pay higher interest rates to get credit facilities. Rates that are extremely high and difficult to break even with... Bank loans to companies would usually be higher than the government borrowing rates... Meaning industries who really needed such bonuses were forced to borrow at higher rates and also keep up with inflation. Little wonder a number od companies went under then. In summary, while the TB rates and economic situation then could seem like a chicken-egg scenario. Looking back, I believe those exorbitant rates played a large part in the inflation and devaluation in the years following..... 2 Likes |

Small by small you are beginning to exonerate Meffy. Even though I benefited from high TB interest rate, I also began to understand when rates were going down that it made sense to reduce it since even at low rates it was still getting oversubscribed, which means that whatever purpose TB serves of mopping up cash could be achieved even at low rates. Some will argue though that the low TB rates necessitated some people to now look towards the USD which invariably increased demand. jedisco: 1 Like |

emmanuelewumi: Pls Mr Emma how are they treated differently? Is the savings deposit secured by the NDIC while the fixed deposit is not? Thanks in advance. |
Re: Treasury Bills In Nigeria by emmanuelewumi(m): 4:41pm On Oct 07, 2021 |
creategist: When your money is fixed, the money is transferred from your account to that of the bank. Banks that are distressed or having liquidity problems usually offer a higher interest rates on their fixed deposit. Your Treasury Bill in the bank is safer than your fixed deposit in the bank 3 Likes |
