It is worth mentioning that introducing the T+2 settlement cycle aims to align the Saudi Stock Market with leading global settlement practices, and to increase levels of asset safety for investors. Moreover, the T+2 settlement cycle has no negative effects on buyers or sellers. According to the this new settlement, buyers have purchasing power to buy new securities immediately after transaction execution, and do not have to wait for the cash settlement to be completed. Sellers are also able to sell purchased securities immediately with no need to wait for cash settlement of the transaction.
