More like a Eurobond fund, investors need to know the issuers and the jurisdiction of the issuers of the various Eurobonds in the fund portfolio.

Who are the regulatory bodies?
Ok. I will get an answer and get back. Thanks.

I don't know of any FG or corporate Eurobond that pays up to 10%

My thinking exactly. The old rule of when it is too good to be true, it probably is not true stands. That is the watchword.
Someone raised your observations mid year on their telegram group. This is the response they gave.

"Our Eurobonds are not Nigeria based. They're across several markets. And we had a number of them who were already ranging around 9-10% who actually got increased yields because of lower demand. Lots of other "Eurobonds" offerings are Nigerian Eurobonds which range from 4-8% depending on who is pushing it. Secondly, a lot of vendors actually take a cut of Eurobonds they offer. So if they get 10% rates, they offer users 6,7% or even less. In our case since we charge a standard fee based on AUM, we keep all the returns to our users.
And that's true for all our plans."

If you have any other questions, ask me. If i don't know i will find out.

A Tbill thread has now been hijacked by a few friends and tribalists to discuss politics and tribal issues when there are other Nairaland threads to discuss these topics. If this is not derailing a Tbill thread, what else is? If there is nothing to discuss in Tbills, then why not let it be a dead thread until things pick up?

There are actually folks out there that try follow Tbills here and they would be very disappointed seeing pages upon pages of tribalistic and political chit chat with no links to Tbills.

What are Treasury Bills?
Treasury Bills are government guaranteed debt instruments issued by CBN on their behalf to finance expenditure. The CBN also uses treasury bills to control money supply in the economy.

How are Treasury Bills Sold?

Treasury Bills are sold through a bi-weekly auction conducted by the CBN. Buyers are requested to quote bids following which the average minimum bid is selected.

@emmasoft what do you have to say about investment one's VDF? I have VGIF but would like to add some dollar investment.

Suggestions are welcome from anyone who has a dollar investment portfolio with any of the investment firms. Thanks.
Ok. My own dollar investment is with a Fintech company called RISEVEST. You can google them. With them you can invest in US Real Estate, US stocks and Eurobond. Rates are per annum.

Eurobond is 10% to 12% per annum.(Low risk) ROI guaranteed.

Real Estate is 13% -15% per annum (Medium risk). The rates are not guaranteed but last year the plan made 17% per annum.

Stock (High Risk) - 12% to 14% per annum. Not guaranteed. Through last year the plan made 27% per annum.

My mum just reminded me about a story she used to tell me about Buhari. Of how back in the day the Pope and the international community begged him not to backdate a death penalty law on drugs. He refused and executed the criminals.

Very commendable.

While Nigerian youths are busy disgracing us globally, a female scholar, technocrat and think-tank member of the past administration is making us proud.

Nonetheless, if I was her, I'll retreat from heading WTO just to show solidarity with my country in this challenging time.

For posterity sake, I once did that in high school.

* Buhari did not mention who sent the soldiers.
Hmmm! He is the commander in chief so he
will not want to indict himself.

* He mentioned that there are a lot of fake news
circulating around social media (which is true).

* He told the international community to not
jump to conclusion.

At the end of it all, the main koko is we are sorry, justice will be served but leave the streets and get back to business.

The most uninspiring speech ever!!! But i hope it works and everything settles.

After that incident he had with the protesters
That was the end of his rulership

He was willing to drag his country to civil war to remain in power after 42 years

Algeria went into mass protests against Aboutefrika not too long ago
He listened to reason
And has decided to step down.after decades in power

Assuming he took a different turn
Algeria would have been in smoke as we speak

What of sudan ?
What started as protests against food and fuel price hikes snowballed into something else
All Bashir, a disgusting war criminal took a page from Gadaffi play book

How did it end ?
He was ousted by the military
Hopefully Buhari reasons well
And listen to good advice and de escalate things

Because like I said in previous comments

Decisions comes with consequence
I think some countries are destined to fight or suffer forever (or at least for a long time) and Libya is finally living its destiny. Crazy thought but that's the only way i can rationalize there being enjoyment countries like Canada and Iceland and suffering countries like Congo, Syria and Libya.

Dont blame her Sir... Why do you overlook the failure of the unrepentant leadership......

Whether now or soon...these occurrence will surely happen .... it was just a matter of time...

Blame the Government...The people in power to serve the people
She has own share of the blame o! Govt called for dialogue. They refused. Did she think they could protest forever PEACEFULLYhuh Without other interests hijacking ithuh Nigeria is not America or Canada that are civilized.

You can't solve Nigeria's problems in a day. There are so many areas needing attention. Healthcare, roads, education etc. I think she hopes the protest would reach a stage where the UN or the International community will ask Buhari to step down.

But she doesn't truly understand her opponent. Baba get big head but e no dey hear word.

She reminds me of Oshiomole of Labor days.

Rebels without a cause.

People that love to fight the establishment. Immediately the protest started, she jumped in. It's like things like that energizes them. Like it fires up their soul and spirit.

She didn't want the protest to end for her own reasons. Going from one state to another to fire up the youths.

I admire her courage in a way, but when someone is pushing you, you need to understand their motivation. She is like a warlord or military general. They only have the goal in sight. And the soldiers (protesters) are the means to an end. They will cry over your grave but continue on their mission. No retreat, no surrender.

If Gadaffi took different decisions
The country wouldn't have been in the state it is in
The entire north africa was swept
Only libya is in turmoil today
Libya's situation is just a pity. Perhaps it would have been better to leave Gaddafi there and try sanctions.

I don't why anyone will come to this thread to look for information on Treasury bills when the rate has declined. And if they come here and have any questions on TB all they need to do is ask. I think some Nigerians just love to be sanctimonious over nothing.

Exactly, that is why it is not good to mix political discussions with investment discussion.

Political discussions you do not get anywhere, nothing is achieved, everyone is entrenched in their own views or opinions.


I am still baffled that people feel comfortable discussing politics in an investment thread, while there are thousands of thread in the Politics section.

They can also create their own threads and attract like minds.
You may start a discussion if you wish and people will discuss it if they like

I love Aisha Yesufu but i think she is going about things the wrong way. She is thinking emotionally not strategically. I watched some of her interviews with TVC and Arise during the early stage of the protest.

She couldn't give a logical reason why protest should continue after the GOvt accepted the 5 demands. She was just beating about the bush. Talking about Govt cannot be trusted.

Ok now, appoint leaders to go and make sure Govt sticks to their promise. No way. They said leaders have failed us.

Instead of her to come out plain and say she want Buhari to step down. She can't say that.

All fire and brimstone, no strategy.

There is a reason why they teach Strategy and stakeholder management in Management schools.

She was just fanning the flames. Haba.

Buhari is not affected by all of this. This is his second term. When he leaves, he will collect pension all his life. So those who feel they are hurting him are only hurting themselves and others citizens.

Anybody happy with the looting has the capability to jet out of the country at anytime. Or they are already outside the country. Or they feel the violence won't affect them. So the blood and livelihood of others can be the cost of a better Nigeria.

The hoodlums were up to 400, they include men, women, teenagers, mothers and their children. Report said they came from Orile in Keke and buses to loot a whole street
First they came for the Communists
And I did not speak out
Because I was not a Communist
Then they came for the Socialists
And I did not speak out
Because I was not a Socialist
Then they came for the trade unionists
And I did not speak out
Because I was not a trade unionist
Then they came for the Jews
And I did not speak out
Because I was not a Jew
Then they came for me
And there was no one left
To speak out for me


People on social media were hailing when they attacked Bola Tinubu's businesses and Sanwoolu's family house. Because it did not reach their side. It is well with this country.

I believe them. Nigerians reason with emotions. They said the cameras removed are infrared cameras used to capture vehicle tags. That the CCTV are overhead and still there. The Governor said the footage is being examined.

All those social media influencers are either abroad or have the means of jetting abroad. Instead of them to call for dialogue, they where busy sponsoring protests all throughout Nigeria. The stories about SARS are horrible but you cannot wave a magic wand and solve the problem. I am starting to see what Segalink saw that made him pull out and call for dialogue The protest was bound to degenerate.

We not only have bad police officers, we also have bad violent people living among us. Agberos, Thugs who smoke hemp everyday. Add them to poor hungry people, then you are calling for an explosion.

The protest organizers were deceived by the people they saw in Lekki. They think everybody is ajebutter.

One Dr. Olufunmi was even saying that if people protest for 30days, UN will step in. Which means, dialogue is not your goal. No matter what the Govt does, you will never believe. Is that not foolishness?

Pardon the lengthy post, i am trying to relieve my tension.
Investment › Re: Treasury Bills In Nigeria by Phraences: 12:10pm On Oct 22, 2020
It is now i believe the feminist_co and others missed the chance for dialogue. They could have drafted a holistic document on police and economic reform and discussed it with the Govt live on TV. But the protesters kept saying no dialogue, no leadership. Now see what has happened. People like Aisha Yesufu will never sit down with the Govt. They are street activist. What was needed after the disbanding of SARS was an advocate like Segalink and others. This country is bad but it should not be made into Libya or Congo.
Something the Govt could have done is instant dismissal of the IGP, police commissioners and DPOs of police stations with notorious reputation like Akwuzu. If the Govt did that, that would be a clear indication that they are serious.




Tabuse2024:
Did you watch the instagram video just shared? Those are hoodlums, thugs, right? Did you see the children among them? They should also all be arrested going by this logic.

See, this issue is not in black or white. There are many many grey areas. Some folks are already playing ethnic card regarding the looting of the Oba's palace when a large percent of residents in Isale Eko are Yorubas. Why was Oba Elegushi not looted too? - this is my only question about that. Another set are stoking ethnic flames at the North too right now...

See, hoodlums, thugs are Nigerians too. They are not aliens. When a mob of people gather and have besieged a place are they hoodlums? It is a game of numbers - the larger the number of people, the easier it is to loot and damage property.

To be fair, when the protests started, they were organised, whoever is funding them is another story.

Btw, LCC said those things removed were digital cameras. If they can provide us footage of the main cameras, that would be nice...
