The Central Bank of Egypt (CBE) is set to offer $950 million in one-year U.S. dollar-denominated Treasury bills (T-bills) on Monday, on behalf of the Ministry of Finance.

The issuance will replace a previous one-year dollar Treasury bill worth $1.06 billion, which matures on February 3 and carries an average yield of 4.25%.

In December 29, the CBE sold $817 million in one-year dollar Treasury bills at an average yield of 3.5%, replacing an earlier issuance of $840 million maturing on December 30, 2025, which had been issued on December 31, 2024, with an average yield of 4.25%.

Earlier, in early December 2025, the central bank issued $961 million in one-year dollar Treasury bills at an average yield of 3.75%, according to CBE data.

Treasury bills are short-term government debt instruments with maturities ranging from three months to one year. In Egypt, they are issued through regular auctions by the Central Bank on behalf of the Ministry of Finance to finance the state budget deficit.
