Example of diversification is if u pit 10m in tb and earn 1.5 m for 365 u can buy some euro like 1000 for 410 and put in dorm account at 2 percent ,then buy land of 750k ,then use then reinvest the remain in mmf etc

That's stability,and assures us of consistency but it leaves us with nothing to flex.....enjoy......

Pls house, I need your input,; A friend of mine wants me to loan her money, 400k which she will pay back within a year @ 40k monthly. Pls what interest rate should be ideal?. I was thinking of 14% since its the treasury bills rate for one year
NB the 400k is an upfront I got from d last week TB.
I am sure she will not default .

Thanks
I highlighted some things in your post. But i won't comment of them.
As per interest to be charged, I would rather you ask her how much interest she can afford. 14% is a bit on the high and you may risk default.

We have some things in common. But I have decided to leave the rental properties and use of my undeveloped properties to do T.bills
My strategy will be something like this? Raise some of the needed capital from the sells of empty land. Do T.bills and keep adding the rent from the rental properties to the t.bills.
NB.
If you don't have empty lands other places, you can use one of your rental properties as a collateral for loan, and do T.bills (instead of outright sale). I hope you do have a 9-5 job or a day business to help you for the necessary daily living expenses while you build up your investment portfolios?

not everybody knows when you collect rents if you don't tell them,because you can receive rent from your tenants anytime of the year depends on when they have cash available to pay in some cases.
also you should know that the rents you receive is your interest not your capital, the property is your capital because property appreciate with time.
my advice to you is to be saving all your rents and then invest it in treasure bills then you have doubled your interest, even if it's small interest rate but in the near future when starts enjoying it I hope you remember.
Am telling you this because am doing same coming year,I just found out about Tbills I have to keep learning more before then,not all that glister are gold.

Just as mymadam mentioned, The relatives will go to a Probate court to get Letter of Administration which they will use to get access to the deceased account. In Lagos, there is a 10% tax on the total amount in the bank(s). If the deceased died Testate, i.e with a registered Will, you get a Probate letter and the executor(s) of the Will gets access to the funds. Same 10% tax is also involved.

PS; Just like most govt establishment, if you don't know somebody or tip the right people in the court, the process can drag for months

An easy way out for me would be to my investments done in a company name and have my spouse and I as signatories to the account.

That is the plan I have. While I am comfortable with it, it may not necessarily be the best option or a suitable option for others.

Next of kin is the person who gets notified in the case of death. It does not grant you automatic access to the funds or assets of the deceased.

That's just bank information. the Next-of-Kin can't have access to a bank account.

That's a good idea, or you could just introduce your spouse as a co-signatory to your existing account or open a joint account with either-to-sign mandate for both of you.

Good question. That’s why you need to have a Last Will and Testament made. Approach a lawyer to help you prepare one. I am still a young man and I don’t have too much wealth but I have a will. In this country we are afraid to talk about death but surely it’s a reality. If you have any financial investments no matter how little, secure them for your loved ones by having a Last Will and Testament. I will not repeat the mistakes of my parents and grandparents.

I thought about joint account and both of us being signatories to the account. And the account will strictly be for investments.
But, why asked the initial question was that I had such account with my late mum. After she died i was operating the account until this BVN... registration thing. And she was already dead. My 200k almost got trapped in that account at a crucial point in my low point. I did BVN.. but the bank was asking me to provide hers. Let's just say Nigeria likes long process and procedures.

How were you able to later pass the hurdle?

1. Swore an affidavit in court
2. went to Local government to register her death
3. Took her Identity card, plus burial brochure and posters
4. the person who paid the money came along with her teller

Then they opened the account and asked that I shouldn't withdraw more than 50k (pending the conclusion of their investigation) .

Another approach I see as answer to this your question is that, if the investment option is not to rollover at maturity, an active ATM can fix the issue. Ensure there is an active ATM that the PIN is known to your NOK, incase your fund is considerably huge you can increase the transferable amount by ATM to the highest available. So in case of such eventuality, what there will do is to gradually transfer the money. That way, they will be no need of paying the 10%, the lawyer and court bills too will be out of it.

However, you most ensure your next of kin or who ever it is that have access to that card and pin is a very trusted and reliable person. You should also ensure the person has done a related transaction with such card before. Then finally be sure your cards is not close to expiration and the secret is well kept from scammers and fraudster.

All this is to be incase will be incase such happens as you ask not if it had already happened ooo.

I don't think your suggestion is right. No bank in Nigeria will give you 2 percent interest for depositing Euros with them.
