Same-day settlement? Not so fast, says Broadridge’s Danny Green

INTERVIEW | Join Danny Green, head of international post trade at Broadridge at the upcoming PostTrade 360° conference, where he will discuss the practicalities of same-day settlement in a session provocatively titled Do we really need same-day settlement? on 2 September.
Shortening the settlement cycle can bring clear benefits around risk reduction, capital efficiency and operational discipline – but it also creates new pressures.

In 2020, the Shareholder Rights Directive II (SRD II) was introduced across EU member states. Building on the original Shareholder Rights Directive (SRD I) from 2007, it introduced binding requirements across five areas: shareholder identification, the facilitation of shareholder rights, the transmission of information through intermediaries, transparency of proxy advisors, and director remuneration.

Will convergence kill coexistence?

Ben van der Velpen — Wed, 19 Aug 2026 05:15:04 +0000

DEEP LOOK | As TradFi and DeFi draw closer, the post-trade world is asking a pointed question: will convergence mean fewer standards, a convergence of standards, or just the mounting cost of maintaining too many?

The question sounds abstract. It isn’t. As settlement cycles compress from T+2 to T+1 and the industry looks beyond that towards T+0 and atomic settlement, the data richness, uniformity and consistency required to operate at speed and scale comes sharply into focus. Standards either enable that journey or slow it down. In the view of Paul Fullam, chair of ISITC and senior business consultant at FIS, one in particular is doing both simultaneously and the industry holds the key.

Shortening settlement cycles is a relay, not a sprint, says EU regulator

Ross was direct about where the burden now sits on EU T+1 readiness. “No one can be ready in isolation,” she told delegates. “Each firm must, of course, assess its own readiness, but that alone is not enough.” Firms, she said, need to check the readiness of their entire ecosystem — clients, brokers, custodians, CSDs, trading venues, CCPs, vendors and outsource providers — because “readiness has to be tested up and down the trading and settlement chain, and one weak link can create pressure throughout that chain.”
