Treasury bills subscription hit Sh62.26 billion at the weekly auction with the Central Bank of Kenya (CBK) accepting about a third at Sh18.34 billion, turning away Sh43 billion.

The 364-day paper continued to get the most interest, receiving bids worth Sh34.58 billion — a 345.87 per cent subscription rate — as investors sought to lengthen investment duration. CBK accepted just Sh10.8 billion from the paper.

If you look at financial results of all banks in 2018 Q1 vs FY2017 you'll see a dip in loan and advances to customers

Very low subscription and even lower acceptance rate, any reason?

Info was already out that a longer dated bond was to be issued for this months primary makes sense for banks to put their funds into t bills... Look at how the 182 day rate went down...

Market weighted average rate is higher than the current interest rates for lending

Interest rates cap law needs to be repealed like yesterday

@Maka is it true that GoK has ever defaulted on payment of interest & payment of principal investment in bonds & tbills in late 90s. Tafasali elimika mimi preeese!!!
