My goodness.....why would you expect it to be that high?
I would expect to be 12.25-12.50 quoted yield..... Why do you think the market will be that aggressive?

@Maka,
What is IFB 11.
The one on offer at the moment is IFB/1/2016/15 with a coupon of 12%.
I don't like anything over 5 years and prefer 2 year bonds.

I might go for 1 million, as this will be fully redeemed in 5 years.
I wonder when the next 2 year bond will be offered. Maybe next month or December. The last ones were in January and May. About time I think

Regards
Impunity

The coupon rate is fixed at 12%. But depending on how the market players will bid, there will be a derived quoted yield .... If the average bid accepted by CBK will be at discount the quoted yield will be higher than the coupon rate. E.g. If CBK asks you to pay Shs 99,500 for a Shs 100,000 bond amount, the quoted yield will be 12.06% after a discount of Shs 500 or 0.5%.

@Impuntiy unaniangusha its an auction guys throw in bids you can even quote 20% and miss properly thats why you should have a general idea where current rates are with that you tend to have a rough idea where the bids will fall...@I hereby revise my earlier prediction to 12.70 -13.20.smile

@Maka, I thought this was a fixed coupon, no bidding?

I too thought that when the gaamnent says "fixed coupon" then no haggling allowed.
I was wrong and seemingly tuko wengi.

@maka,are guys placing less than 1M allowed to bid ama if they do that they will automatically disquolified?

Above 20mio you have to bid....below 20mio it's not a must you can apply at average....but to answer you yes you can put in a competitive bid even at 100k.

Check out the comms for 5 mio...but most brokers they have set the minimum as 500 bob...so if you transact 100,000...you will be charged 500 bob
