T+0 Settlement: Hidden Risk in Tokenized Markets

🤖This content was generated by TradingMaster AI based on real-time market data. While we strive for accuracy, please verify important financial information from the original source.
Deloitte's 2026 outlook highlights T+0 settlement as a major market development, enabling same-day trade execution. While this represents a significant efficiency improvement over traditional T+2 settlement, the consulting firm warns that tokenized settlement systems could create dangerous regulatory blind spots. The instantaneous nature of blockchain-based settlements may make market manipulation nearly impossible to detect and prevent in real-time.
This creates a paradoxical situation where technological advancement introduces new systemic risks. As regulators work to streamline rules and encourage innovation, they must simultaneously develop sophisticated monitoring tools for these faster settlement systems. The crypto market should watch how traditional finance addresses these challenges, as solutions developed for tokenized securities could eventually inform broader crypto market regulation.
