The Nigerian government will auction bonds worth N150 billion by subscription on 19th August, the Debt Management Office (DMO) said on Tuesday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The DMO said the settlement date for the bonds is 21st August 2020.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Last month, the Nigerian government had auctioned bonds valued at N130 billion, which were oversubscribed by N340.13 billion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While the 12.5 per cent FGN January bond was offered for N25 billion, the rest three bonds were offered for N35 billion each.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The auction results revealed 36, 58, 70 and 29 were successful bids for the total bids for each bonds auction of 97, 87, 131 and 189 bids.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The DMO<\/a> noted that successful bids for the 12.5 per cent FGN January 2026, 12.5 per cent FGN March 2035, 9.80 per cent FGN July 2045 and 12.98 per cent FGN March 2050 were allotted at the marginal rates of 6 per cent, 9.5 per cent, 9.8 per cent and 9.95 per cent in that order.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
