What is T+1 and how Symphony Directory helps
The SEC has adopted a final rule to shorten the standard settlement cycle for most securities transactions to one business day following the trade date (T+1); this requirement is expected to expand globally. The reduced settlement period requires faster connectivity between operations teams to meet stricter, post-trade processing requirements.
Email has been the main method of communication between stakeholders being used. T+1 requires companies to reexamine their post-trade processes and procedures, including communication methods of uncovering and notifying the right contact via the proper channel. Are they online? Do you have the correct email?
Symphony Directory can streamline this process.
Symphony Directory provides firms with the speed and flexibility to resolve post-trade activities, serving as the most trusted and relevant directory for the financial services industry.
