Egypt's Ministry of Finance has announced eight treasury bill and bond tenders worth a total of EGP 190bn this week, as part of its ongoing financing plan. The offerings include four treasury bills totaling EGP 160bn and four bonds amounting to EGP 30bn.
In a routine move to finance the state's general budget deficit, Egypt's Ministry of Finance has detailed eight treasury bill and bond tenders scheduled for this week. The treasury bills include a 91-day maturity worth EGP 25bn, a 182-day bill at EGP 40bn, a 273-day bill for EGP 45bn, and a 364-day bill valued at EGP 50bn.
The bonds comprise EGP 8bn in two-year treasuries, EGP 4bn in three-year bonds, an additional EGP 15bn three-year bond with a variable yield, and EGP 3bn in five-year bonds.
Banks operating in the Egyptian market are the primary investors in these instruments, with the offerings conducted through 15 banks participating in the Primary Dealers system in the primary market. These banks then resell portions of the issues in the secondary market to local and foreign individual and institutional investors.
This initiative supports the government's financing needs, ensuring a steady flow of government securities in the market.
