The Treasury in partnership with Safaricom, NSE & CDSC today launch M-Akiba. Minimum amount is Ksh. 3000 and the interest is to be paid semi-annually.

GoK now focussed on domestic borrowing as it has become too expensive to borrow offshore.

Round 1 will be 5bn http://t.co/trcXWdv5Jz

Treasury is going to disrupt banking. Currently banks lend 57% of all local Treasury debt. This effort could see that reduce below half-mark in coming months. Interbank is at 25%.

its time for banks to suffer massive withdrawals if they can't pay good interest

Does it mean the interest will be known after the subscription?

CBK this month offered a 1 year treasury bond for Ksh. 30B with the average redemption yield of 19.062%. Uptake of this bond was 88.35% (Ksh. 26.505B)

https://www.centralbank....2028.09.2015updated.pdf

Thinking they will offer a slightly higher yield to attract flows.

Its interesting to note that the next bond auction at CBK will be on 26th October days after the M-Akiba launch.

Tbond IPO... How many wanjikus are informed on tbonds/tbills? This is what will determine if this 'tbond IPO' is a success. This will be an interesting case study.

How much is mpesa bank going to earn apart from mpesa fees? Any transaction fees like banks when they place bond bids on your behalf? When this market gets popular those fees will be a serious cash cow!! At some point mpesa bank will be split from the telco part to aid in better supervision.
