The current T+2 settlement cycle is a convention of market practice and shortening that period as regular-way for all market participants will require industry coordination, similar to the change in 2017 from T+3 to T+2. DTCC is prepared to move quickly to accelerate the settlement cycle to T+1 and beyond and has already implemented several key operational enhancements that lay the foundation for this change.
