12 Countries with the Highest Bond Yields in the World

4. Nigeria

S&P Rating: B-

10-Year bond yield as of 5th Apr 2025: 19.53%

Nigeria’s decision to remove fuel subsidies in 2023 has caused a rift in its standard of living. Nigeria’s inflation for Feb 2025 stood at 23.18%. The ‘B-‘ outlook provided by S&P with a positive outlook further indicates that this specific bond is a highly speculative investment. However, inflation has been on a declining pattern, and the increasing foreign reserves, which rose 15% in 2024, can provide a sign of relief for the future of Nigeria.
