Pakistan’s stock market has successfully implemented the T+1 settlement system, making the country the seventh in the world to adopt this advanced mechanism.
According to the Securities and Exchange Commission of Pakistan (SECP), trades conducted on February 9 were successfully settled on February 10 under the new system.
SECP Chairman Dr. Kabir Siddhu stated that the introduction of T+1 settlement will boost investor confidence. He added that the move aligns Pakistan’s stock market with modern global markets and enhances transparency, which is crucial for maintaining trust among investors.
The implementation of this system is expected to streamline trading, reduce settlement risk, and further strengthen the credibility of the Pakistani stock market.
