Investors continued to shift their investments into Bank of Ghana bills and fixed deposits, as they prefer financial instruments with higher returns.<\/p>\n

According to auction results by the Bank of Ghana, the government failed to meet its target for the second week running. It was actually undersubscribed by 30%.<\/p>\n

The Treasury received GH\u00a22.59 billion of the total bids, but accepted GH\u00a22.57 billion.<\/p>\n

A little over 78% of the bids came from the 91-day bill. About GH\u00a22.028 billion of the bids were tendered.<\/p>\n

The uptake was GH\u00a22.023 billion.<\/p>\n

For the 182-day bill, GH\u00a2394.4 million of the bids were tendered. This was lower than the bids tendered last week.<\/p>\n

The bids accepted were estimated to the tune of GH\u00a2389.4 million.<\/p>\n

Also, GH\u00a2170.6 million of the bids were tendered for the 364-day bill. About GH\u00a2165.6 million of the bids were accepted.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, interest rates went down marginally on the yield curve.<\/p>\n

The yield on the 91-day bill reduced by 3.0 basis points to 10.47%.<\/p>\n

However, that of the 182-day bill decreased to 12.35% from 12.39% the preceding week.<\/p>\n

Additionally, the yield on the 364-day bill declined by 2.0 basis points to 12.87%.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
