Market reference, not a list of live connections.
Equity and debt, side by side.
The same record holds a share purchase, a 91-day bill and a unit trust holding.
Bonds and bills
Treasury bills are sold at a discount and repaid at face value. Government bonds and Eurobonds pay interest until they mature. A Eurobond is sold on international markets, usually in US dollars.
91 days About three months. Ghana, Nigeria and Kenya all sell 91-day bills at their regular auctions.
Funds
Unit trusts and mutual funds, priced every day. Each unit’s price comes from the fund’s net asset value.
- Subscriptions and redemptions
- Daily unit pricing
- Fund and client statements
The trades a desk actually runs.
Repo, spread and switch are single structures here, not two loose trades and a spreadsheet holding them together.
Repo
A repurchase agreement with an annualised rate and a day-count. Both legs come from one ticket.
Spread
The buy and the sell are priced as one position, so the desk’s spread is plain to see.
Switch
Move a client from one security to another in one instruction. Both contract notes come out together.
Proprietary
The firm trades its own book against inventory. Its position is checked before the trade.
Agency
Client orders on commission. The fee is shown on the contract note.
Primary and secondary
At par when a security is issued, at market price after that.
