FPI will not be disturbed by the phased implementation of T + 1 settlement


MUMBAI: Foreign institutional investors (FPIs) are relieved by the phased implementation of the T + 1 settlement cycle. This short cycle of settlement was opposed by many FPIs.

In a joint decision, the country's major stock exchanges have announced a 12-phase implementation of the T + 1 settlement cycle, which will begin at the end of February 2018 and will initially apply to 100 stocks. These stocks also do not see significant volume on the stock markets.

The stocks covered in the first nine phases do not show any slight holdings of FPIs, which indicates that the operations of foreign investors are not likely to be significantly disrupted till the implementation of this phase.

The volume and market cap of stocks that will be covered in the initial stages is very low compared to the overall market. The real impact of the T + 1 settlement cycle will be felt from December 203, when key stocks will be included, said an official at The Asia Securities Industry and Financial Markets Association, a leading FPIS organization.

With the lowest market cap adding 500 stocks per month, most FPIs will not see much impact until August 205, as stocks with lower market caps and volumes are to be covered in the T + 1 settlement cycle by August.

In this case, the FPIS will have enough time to adjust to the T + 1 settlement cycle. As many as 215 stocks will be covered in the T + 1 settlement cycle by January 8, 203.
