Indications have emerged that the Debt Management Office, DMO, recorded excess demand for Federal Government of Nigerian (FGN) bonds at its monthly primary market auction on Monday.

DMO conducted a primary market auction on Monday, during which, it offered N350 billion worth of local bonds to investors.

The amount DMO sought to raise from 5-year and 7-year bonds were N200 billion and N150 billion following announcement of cancellation of N100 billion worth of 10-Year bonds.

The auction results revealed that investors staked more than N1.632 trillion on the amount offer amidst increasing appetite for the naira assets.

The 5-Year FGN bonds received a total subscription of ₦465.146 billion from investors. Of the total bids, the DMO allotted ₦305.362 billion to investors, meeting 97 out of 133 bids it received.

For the 7-Year bonds, DMO offered to raise N150 billion but subscription came heavier as investors continue to capitalise on real returns.

While investors’ subscription came at ₦1, 167.092 billion, the DMO only sold ₦605.027 billion – success bids was 175 out of 318 pushed forward.

Successful bids for the 19.30% FGN APR 2029 (Re-opening, 5-Year Bond) & 18.50% FGN FEB 2031 (Re-opening, 7-Year Bond) were allotted at the Marginal Rates of 19.20% and 19.33%, respectively.

However, the original coupon rates of 19.30% for the 19.30% FGN APR 2029 & 18.50% for the 18.50% FGN FEB 2031 will be maintained, DMO said. #Nigeria Turns Down Bids over Excess Demand for Local Bonds
