The Central Bank of Oman (CBO) recently raised OMR1 million by allotting treasury bills, with the allotted treasury bills amounting to RO 0.5 million for a maturity period of 28 days. The average accepted price for every RO 100 was RO 99.665, with a minimum accepted price of RO 99.665 per RO 100. The average discount rate and yield reached 4.36696% and 4.38164%, respectively.

In addition to the 28-day treasury bills, the CBO also allotted treasury bills worth RO 0.5 million for a maturity period of 91 days. The average accepted price for every RO 100 was RO 98.850, with a minimum accepted price of RO 98.850 per RO 100. The average discount rate and yield for these bills reached 4.61264% and 4.66630%, respectively.

Treasury bills are short-term, highly secured financial instruments issued by the Ministry of Finance, providing licensed commercial banks with the opportunity to invest their surplus funds. The CBO acts as the Issue Manager for these bills, providing added liquidity through discounting and repurchase facilities (Repo).

Interest rates for Repo operations with the CBO are set at 5.50%, while the discount rate on the Treasury Bills Discounting Facility with the CBO stands at 6.00%. Treasury bills play a crucial role in promoting the local money market by creating a benchmark yield curve for short-term interest rates and can be used by the government to finance its recurrent expenditures when necessary.

Overall, the recent allotment of treasury bills by the Central Bank of Oman highlights the importance of these financial instruments in managing liquidity in the local financial market. With their high level of security and short-term nature, treasury bills provide commercial banks with a reliable investment option while also supporting the government in meeting its financial needs. Through the issuance of treasury bills, the CBO continues to play a key role in maintaining stability and liquidity in Oman’s financial system.
