The Bonds will have a nominal unit value in Franco CFA of one million, while the interest rate will be deducted from the nominal unit value.
Subscription for the Bonds can be made through banks and financial centers of the Economic and Monetary Community of Central Africa (CEMAC), authorized as specialists in State Bonds by Equatorial Guinea’s Ministry for Finance and Budgets.
