SEC Resets the Clock on Trade Settlements

March 24, 2017

The SEC is shortening by one business day the standard settlement cycle for most broker-dealer securities transactions.  What currently takes 3 business to settle will soon take 2 business days. The amended rules takes effect on 9/5/17.

 

The amended rule is intended to enhance efficiency, reduce risk, and ensure a coordinated and expeditious transition by market participants to a shortened standard settlement cycle.
