Nepal Rastra Bank (NRB) has announced that it will collect Rs. 100 billion in deposits from banks and financial institutions through a competitive bidding process as part of its ongoing liquidity management operations.
According to a notice issued by the central bank, the deposit collection process will be conducted today through NRB’s Online Bidding System, with the funds being absorbed for a period of 19 days.
Under the arrangement, participating institutions must specify both the deposit amount and the interest rate they are willing to offer. The final interest rate will be determined through the bidding process.
Only NRB-licensed Class ‘A’, ‘B’, and ‘C’ banks and financial institutions are eligible to participate.
The minimum bid amount has been fixed at Rs. 10 crore, while bids above that must be submitted in multiples of Rs. 5 crore, subject to the total issue size of Rs. 100 billion. Institutions are allowed to submit multiple bids within the announced limit.
NRB stated that the accepted deposit amounts will be automatically deducted from the participating institutions’ accounts and transferred into a separate account maintained at the central bank. The deposited amount, together with interest, will be returned on Ashad 17, 2083 (July 1, 2026).
The central bank also warned that institutions failing to maintain sufficient balance on settlement day could face restrictions on participation in future deposit collection operations.
Importantly, NRB clarified that the collected deposits will not qualify as Cash Reserve Ratio (CRR) holdings. However, they will still be considered in the calculation of other liquidity-related regulatory requirements.
Early withdrawal of the deposited amount will not be permitted before maturity.
This move reflects NRB’s continued effort to absorb excess liquidity in Nepal’s banking system, where deposit growth has remained stronger than credit expansion in recent months. By temporarily pulling liquidity out of circulation, the central bank aims to support more balanced monetary conditions and maintain stability in short-term interest rates.
