On Monday, the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) auctioned treasury bills to investors through the open market operations (OMO).
Business Post reports that at the close of business, a total of N25.49 billion bills were sold by the central bank.
A breakdown of the sale showed that N25.46 billion worth of 185-day bill was traded at 17.80 percent stop rate, while the N32 million worth of 94-day bill was sold at 16 percent stop rate.
Business Post further reports that the treasury bills market today was scantily traded as a result of the liquidity in the market.
Yields are expected to decline slightly tomorrow, with market players expected to cherry pick some of the high yielding bills in the market.
