A little above GH¢153 million was accepted.For the 364-day bill, about GH¢474.85 million of the bids were tendered. A little above GH¢224 million of the bids were accepted.Meanwhile, interest rates continued to decrease on the yield curve.The yield on the 91-day bill declined by 4.0 basis points to 4.64%.That of the 182-day bill also went down to 6.31% from the preceding 6.67%.Similarly, the yield on the 364-day bill dropped by 3.0 basis points to 9.80%.Looking ahead, Databank Research expects demand to remain relatively soft at the next auction as the Treasury’s modest funding requirement should keep the auction comfortably covered and yields broadly stable.SECURITIESBIDS TENDERED (GH¢)BIDS ACCEPTED (GH¢)91 Day Bill 2.215bn1.394bn182 Day Bill235.19m1.53.59m364 Day Bill474.85m224.35m Total2.925bn1.772bnTarget2.241bn
