FPI concerns remain as shift to T+1 nears

Overseas investors, as well as other O key stakeholders, such as brokers, custodians, and clearing corporations, are yet to iron out critical issues, even as the shift towards a shorter trade settlement cycle approaches new phases.

Several industry players said foreign portfolio investors (FPIs) are still facing impediments over the trade confirmation timelines, foreign exchange (forex) bookings, and pre-funding requirements. This could potentially act as a roadblock when it comes to moving entirely to the new T+1 settlement cycle from next year.

From February onwards, 500 stocks from the bottom in terms of market value are being moved to the shorter T+1 settlement cycle. The top 200 stocks where FPIs have deployed the bulk of their assets will be moved to a T+1 settlement cycle from January 2023 onwards. However, there are a bunch of stocks with FPI shareholding that will be moved to T+1 next month.
