The decision to issue them in tranches will stagger the impact

LAGOS, Nov cheap Canada Goose 15 (Reuters) Plans by Nigeria bank canada goose coats on sale to issue bonds in Canada Goose sale tranches to absorb bad loans from the banking system will help limit the impact on the fledgling debt market but yields and interest rates could still rise.

The newly formed state asset management company (AMCON) plans to issue zero coupon bonds in five Canada Goose Jackets tranches to absorb bad loans from nine banks canadian goose jacket rescued last year in a $4 billion bailout.

The aim is canada goose factory sale to help recapitalise the rescued lenders and restore lending in sub Saharan Africa second biggest economy.

AMCON will issue bonds canada goose uk shop through the Debt Management Office (DMO) to buy non performing loans with a face cheap canada goose uk value of 2.2 trillion naira ($15 billion), although it has told bankers it expects to pay around 800 billion naira for the assets.

It will also bring the lenders negative shareholders funds to zero by injecting 1.7 trillion naira, before new investors come in to restore them to minimum capital adequacy levels.

AMCON canada goose uk outlet plans to issue a 3 year zero coupon bond, the first tranche of the series, by the end of the year and replace it at maturity with a 7 year bond.

AMCON bonds Canada Goose Parka will have the Canada Goose Online characteristics of https://www.canadagooseparks.com sovereign bonds and can be discounted by the central bank for cash.

first 25 percent canada goose uk black friday of the bonds issued to the Canada Goose online banks can buy canada goose jacket be discounted with central uk canada goose outlet bank, and the balance traded for uk canada goose liquidity at the over the counter market (OTC), Vetiva Capital said in a note to investors following a meeting with AMCON.

Brokers said AMCON had consulted on the impact of issuing such a large amount of bonds. The decision to issue them in tranches will stagger the impact on the debt market, which is still largely dominated by government bonds.

asset purchases will only be in the region of 0.8 trillion naira, so liquidity impact once the AMCON gets going (is) more muted, said Razia Khan, head of Africa research at Standard Chartered Bank.

Nigeria has raised just over 1 trillion naira in buy canada goose jacket cheap government Canada Goose Coats On Sale bond issues over the past 10 months.

PRESSURE ON YIELDS Some analysts see the impact on the debt market as limited because AMCON will raise bonds to buy non performing loans from banks which could then sell canada goose clearance sale the bonds for cash, meaning that the liquidity remains within the banking system.

though money is being raised from the system, the canada goose black friday sale bulk of that money would go back to the system, said Sonnie Ayere, head of Lagos based investment bank Dunn Loren Merrifield.

But other canada goose store analysts say AMCON activities could raise bond yields and interest rates, with pension funds and banks lacking the levels of liquidity needed to absorb such a large issuance.

all the banks decide to sell AMCON instruments to the market at once, it remains to be seen whether the absorption capacity would actually exist, said Samir Gadio, emerging markets strategist at Standard Bank.

If cheap canada goose the supply of bonds increases sharply without a corresponding increase in liquidity to absorb, yields and interest rates could rise.

“In the absence of the central bank increasing liquidity in the system, an increase in bonds through AMCON in the canada goose market place will increase interest rates,” said Malcolm Gilroy of canada goose clearance investment firm Canada Goose Outlet Afrinvest West canada goose coats Africa.
