T+1 Settlement

Ready, trade, settle.

Achieve same‑day affirmation.
Settle on time.

T+1 shortens the time you have to confirm, allocate, instruct and ultimately settle a trade. Many firms are discovering that email‑based confirmations, manual standing settlement instruction (SSI) lookups and fragmented custodian messaging can’t keep pace with the desired speed of doing business. In the UK and EU, financial institutions must prepare to upgrade their infrastructure to support T+1, and start planning for T+0.

 

Without change, the result will mean missed deadlines, avoidable fails and locked-up liquidity. Tokenovate helps teams reach T+1 readiness by standardising post‑trade data, codifying lifecycle logic, and coordinating settlement across custodians and payment rails. Where tokenised rails are appropriate, we support atomic delivery‑versus‑payment (DvP) while preserving legal books and records.

 

But that’s not all. Aligning with T+1 also helps firms unlock capital, reduce risks, shorten the time between trades, and facilitate growth by freeing up liquidity to be re-invested faster.

The Challenges

Inconsistent trade and reference data create friction early. Allocations arrive late or change after the fact. SSIs are scattered across spreadsheets or portals. Confirmation workflows are fragmented and difficult to audit. Different systems trigger cash and securities legs independently, so status checks become manual. All of this makes T+1 affirmation harder than it needs to be and pushes unnecessary risk into settlement day.

T+1 is coming, fast

Shorter cycles reduce counterparty and market risk, but only if firms can compress post‑trade timelines reliably.

That means: finalising allocations earlier, affirming on T+1, instructing custodians correctly and surfacing exceptions before cut‑off. Consistency of data and clarity of process are core foundations. Tokenovate provides both.

 

How Tokenovate gets you to T+1

The Tokenovate platform is delivers automated workflow orchestration accessed via APIs. You can adopt these workflows individually or as a platform. The thread that ties them together is the unified CDM-based trade record, so data, legal context and process always stay aligned.

Unify And Affirm On T+1

First, ingest orders, trades, allocations and SSIs through industry standards such as FIX, FpML and ISO 20022. Map them to a unified trade record in the CDM for a single source of truth, enrich with LEIs and custodian references, provide a clean basis for affirmation, receive consistent updates, and have fewer breaks to reach settlement.

Then, synchronise current status with custodians and CSDs, coordinating the cash and securities legs. Where tokenised rails fit the use case, Tokenovate applies a mint–settle–burn approach that preserves the custodian as the legal book of record while enabling atomic DvP and an immutable audit trail.

FAQs

Not necessarily, but it helps. Tokenovate is built natively on the Common Domain Model (CDM), which makes your operations more efficient, transparent, and future-proof. If you’re not using CDM today, our platform can still integrate with your existing workflows and data standards. CDM adoption simply means you’ll be able to unlock the full benefits of automation and regulatory alignment more quickly.

Almost. Tokenovate aims to be format-agnostic. Whether you’re sending data in FIX, FPML, CSV, XML, or proprietary formats, our platform can process and standardise it for you. We normalise everything into a common data layer (CDM) so you don’t need to overhaul your existing systems before onboarding.

No. Tokenisation is optional. Tokenovate can support both traditional book-entry assets and digital/tokenised assets. This flexibility means you can start benefiting from accelerated settlement, automation, and compliance today without waiting for a full tokenisation strategy. When you’re ready, the same infrastructure seamlessly supports tokenised assets.
