Definition: A settlement cycle in which a transaction is completed one business day after the trade date, reducing counterparty and settlement risk.
Example: A buy-side firm buys 10,000 shares of stock on Monday. Under the T+1 settlement standard, the trade date (T) is Monday while the settlement date (when cash leaves the fund’s custodial account and shares enter the portfolio) is Tuesday (T+1).
