BoT invites investors to take part in 10-year treasury bond auction

By Our Reporter

The Bank of Tanzania (BoT) has opened an opportunity for investors to participate in a 10-year Treasury Bond auction, offering an annual return of 11.25 per cent as the government continues to expand investment opportunities and strengthen domestic financing.

The auction for 10-Year Treasury Bond No. 711, Auction No. 01 will be conducted on July 22, 2026, with the bond set to mature on July 23, 2036.

According to BoT, investors who successfully purchase the bond will receive interest payments every six months, with coupon payments scheduled for January 23 and July 23 each year during the bond’s 10-year period.

The minimum investment amount has been set at TZS 1 million, allowing individual investors, companies, financial institutions and other eligible participants to invest in government securities.

The central bank said the auction is open to Tanzanian citizens, residents from East African Community (EAC) and Southern African Development Community (SADC) member states, as well as Tanzanians living abroad.

Treasury bonds are a key government financing tool that enables the state to mobilise funds for development priorities while giving investors an opportunity to earn returns through a regulated investment platform.

The latest bond offer comes as Tanzania continues efforts to deepen its financial markets by encouraging more citizens and institutions to participate in formal investment instruments.

BoT has been promoting wider public participation in government securities, including Treasury bonds and Treasury bills, as part of measures to increase financial inclusion and create more avenues for savings and investment.

Interested investors can access further details through the Bank of Tanzania’s official communication platforms.
