Despite the shortfall, the government accepted all bids submitted during the auction.

Investor interest remained heavily skewed toward the 91-day bill, which attracted GH¢2.028 billion—accounting for 68.37% of total bids.

The 182-day bill drew GH¢622.79 million, while the 364-day bill received bids slightly over GH¢316 million.

Meanwhile, yields across the treasury bill curve continued their downward trend.

The 91-day bill yield declined by 14 basis points to 14.56%.
The 182-day bill dropped to 15.01% from 15.25% the previous week.
The 364-day bill saw the sharpest decline, falling by 58 basis points to 15.16%.
