Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 46609, member: 636"] Bank of Uganda released its auction schedule for government securities covering the next fiscal year. The calendar spans from July 2025 through June 2026 and lists when the central bank will sell Treasury Bills and Treasury Bonds. These financial instruments help fund government operations and manage money flow across Uganda's banking system. The schedule gives investors clear dates for purchasing government debt securities. Officials hope the predictable timing will attract more buyers to these safe investment options. Treasury Bills will be sold every week with same-day settlement after each auction. The bank offers three different time periods for these short-term securities lasting 91 days, 182 days or 364 days. Treasury Bonds go on sale twice monthly on Wednesdays with buyers paying the next day. These longer investments range from two years up to 25 years before maturity. Some bonds pay interest rates above 15 percent annually to attract institutional investors. The bank plans to introduce two new bond types during this period. A five-year bond and 25-year bond will both debut and reopen later for additional sales. Several existing bonds will reopen multiple times throughout the year to provide steady investment chances. The 10-year bond pays 16.25 percent interest and matures in November 2035. Long-term bonds help Uganda build a complete range of investment options for pension funds and insurance companies. The consistent schedule supports the government's debt management strategy and builds confidence among financial markets. Primary dealers can help individual investors purchase these securities through licensed financial institutions. [/QUOTE]
