  "account": "The government of Ghana successfully sold more treasury bills than initially targeted, exceeding its goal by roughly 12%. The government aimed to raise GH¢15.3 billion in the final quarter of 2026, and managed to attract bids worth GH¢4.26 billion from investors. However, only GH¢3.9 billion of these bids were accepted by the government.\n\nThe majority of the bids - about 67% - were for the 91-day bill, with approximately GH¢2.8 billion in bids. The 182-day bill received bids totaling about GH¢533.28 million, while the 364-day bill saw bids of roughly GH¢873 million. The 91-day bill's yield declined by one basis point to 4.61%, while the 182-day bill's yield dropped by the same margin to 6.27%. Conversely, the 364-day bill's yield increased by four basis points to 9.75%.",
