Treasury bills and government bonds

See how a Treasury bill’s price follows from its rate, what you receive at maturity after fees and tax, and how a bond’s price, accrued interest and duration work. Ophir Markets does not offer these investments yet; this page is for learning.

Tenors shown are the ones usually offered; check the current auction calendar. The withholding tax rate for individuals is unconfirmed (15% on the Bank of Zambia sheet, 20% from August 2025 in other sources).
