Announce Central Bank of Egyptoffering new treasury bills denominated in Egyptian pounds worth 95 billion pounds next Sunday, March 1, 2026, on behalf of the Ministry of Finance, to be issued on March 3, 2026, as part of the government’s plan to manage liquidity and manage the needs of the state’s general budget.
The offerings included three different terms, providing short- and medium-term investment tools for banks and financial institutions.
Offering details
- Treasury bills worth 25 billion pounds with a maturity of 91 days, maturing on June 2, 2026.
- Treasury bills worth 45 billion pounds with a maturity of 273 days, maturing on December 1, 2026.
- Treasury bills worth 25 billion pounds with a maturity of 336 days, maturing on February 2, 2027.
This issuance comes within the framework of the government’s efforts to enhance liquidity in the local currency and support financing of economic projects, and reflects investors’ confidence in the strength and stability of the Egyptian economy.
Treasury bills are among the most important short-term debt instruments that the government relies on to finance the budget deficit, as investors and banks accept them as low-risk investment tools, especially in light of the relatively high interest levels in the local market.
These proposals come at a time when markets are awaiting the decisions of the Central Bank’s Monetary Policy Committee regarding interest rates, as they have a direct impact on the required return on government debt instruments and the cost of borrowing.
