FG Reopens N1.2tn Bond Offer with Yields up to 22.6%

The Federal Government has reopened three bond tranches worth a combined N1.2 trillion to raise long-term funds from the domestic debt market. The issues include a 10-year January 2035 bond at 22.60% per annum, a 15-year May 2028 bond at 15.45%, and a 20-year June 2037 bond. Each tranche is valued at N400 billion. The auction is set for July 20, with settlement due on July 22. Bonds are offered at N1,000 per unit, with a minimum subscription of N50 million and additional multiples of N1,000. FGN bonds carry semi-annual interest payments and full principal repayment at maturity. They are backed by the Federal Government, enjoy tax exemptions, and qualify as liquid assets on the NGX and FMDQ exchanges.

Diversify across shorter maturities first, then gradually add longer bonds once you monitor interest rate trends.
