still don't understand why many retail investors shy away from this! the rates are far higher what you get in Tbills and it enables one to plan well! Currently have a 7 years bond and I use the bi annual coupons for sch fees settlements |
Re: Invest In FG Bonds by ernie4life(m): 9:33am On Jul 14, 2015 |
feelamong: People shy away from it because the feel it's too long, they are like 7years! But the truth is that it all depends on your financial plan. Second reason is lack of information, most people don't know that with as little as 100k u could buy bonds 1 Like |

could you elaborate further please. |
Re: Invest In FG Bonds by Nobody: 2:03pm On Jul 14, 2015 |
ernie4life: It is not compulsory that you hold the bond till maturity. Even if the tenure is 7 years, you can sell whenever |
Re: Invest In FG Bonds by ernie4life(m): 7:49pm On Jul 14, 2015 |
NairaQuest: Yea you could resale |
Re: Invest In FG Bonds by troy20(m): 8:09pm On Jul 14, 2015 |
ernie4life:how about you enumerate the processes to aquiring these bonds and what institution would you personally recommend. |
Re: Invest In FG Bonds by ernie4life(m): 8:23pm On Jul 14, 2015 |
troy20: Bonds will be sold tomorrow so probably the info will be for next time. To acquire FG bonds is simple, meet a financial institution that has access to it, and they will tell u what to do. At investment-one financial services limited where I work, you need to fill a form then make a transfer of the amount you want us to buy bonds for, give an instruction to us to buy bonds and that's all. The process may vary from one institution to another so I advice you enquire first. 1 Like |

Re: Invest In FG Bonds by ernie4life(m): 8:54pm On Jul 14, 2015 |
sentoms: Minimum amount is 100k For preliquidation there is a charge but not sure of the figure |
Re: Invest In FG Bonds by Nobody: 12:36am On Jul 16, 2015 |
ernie4life: There should be no extra charge for selling your bond before maturity, just the regula transaction or sales charge. Bonds trade in the market like stocks. It appears that we need investor education in Nigeria 1 Like |

Re: Invest In FG Bonds by Toun2nl: 11:45am On Jun 15, 2016 |
@feelamong- what does the ffing mean? For Re-openings of previously issued bonds, (where the coupon is already set), successful bidders will pay a price corresponding to the yield-to-maturity bid that clears the volume being auctioned, plus accrued interest from the original issue date. |
Re: Invest In FG Bonds by Raylight2(m): 12:29pm On Jun 15, 2016 |
Please, some of us don't understand those business terms. If I invest 10k , what'll be the interest rate? |
