Announcement ceremony for the implementation of the T+1 settlement cycle takes place at PSX

In a landmark event held at the Pakistan Stock Exchange (PSX), the SECP officially announced the transition to a T+1 settlement cycle, effective February 9, 2026 — a bold move that places Pakistan among the early global adopters of this regime.

This strategic shift is set to significantly enhance investor experience, reduce credit and liquidity risks, and boost market efficiency — aligning Pakistan’s capital markets with global best practices.

The ceremony was attended by key representatives from PSX, SECP, NCCPL, CDC, securities brokers, banks, and other industry players — all echoing the significance of this major milestone.
