Ghana government misses GH¢4.89b Treasury Bill target
The Ghana government fell short of its Treasury Bill target, raising GH¢4 billion against a goal of GH¢4.89 billion in the latest auction.
The shortfall of about GH¢800 million was recorded in Tender 2003, which covered 91-day, 182-day and 364-day bills.
Results released by the Bank of Ghana (BoG) and copied to the Ghana News Agency showed that the 91-day bill recorded bids of GH¢2.56 billion, with GH¢2.54 billion accepted at rates between 4.5 and 5.0 per cent.
The 182-day bill attracted GH¢771 million in bids, of which GH¢758 million was accepted at rates ranging from 6.48 to 6.95 per cent.
For the 364-day bill, bids totalled GH¢1.16 billion, but only GH¢790 million was accepted at rates between 8.5 and 9.39 per cent.
The weighted average discount rates for the week ending April 24 were 4.89 per cent for the 91-day bill, 6.68 per cent for the 182-day bill, and 9.20 per cent for the 364-day bill.
The Bank has set a target of GH¢4.485 billion for the next auction, Tender 2004, scheduled later in April.
