Regulatory bodies like the SEC and stock exchanges in India are implementing or considering transitioning to T+0 and T+1 stock settlement cycles, aiming to reduce the time it takes to settle share trades. The SEC Division of Examinations issued a Risk Alert for the May 28, 2024 compliance date of T+1, emphasizing the need for market participants to prepare for the change. India has already initiated the world's fastest T+0 stock settlement, with specific eligible stocks. The BSE and NSE introduced T+0 rolling settlement in the equity segment, offering benefits to investors. The UK is also planning to halve stock settlement times by the end of 2027, following the U.S.'s lead.
