How tight liquidity drives T-Bills yield

The upward yield repricing came ahead of the primary market auction to be conducted by the apex bank on Wednesday, according to its Nigerian Treasury bills issuance calendar.

At the auction, the CBN is expected to roll over N263.50 billion worth of bills to market participants. The Treasury market has seen yield dropping from 11 per cent to less than two per cent over a robust funding profile in the financial system amidst a dearth of alternative investment options.
