Trade execution and allocation
Accelerated trade processing, increased straight-through processing (STP) and tighter allocation deadlines.
T+1 settlement is no longer a future consideration. It is a regulatory certainty. As firms prepare for the October 2027 transition, many are still addressing the operational, technology and data changes required to meet accelerated settlement timelines and new regulatory criteria for standardized electronic communication and processing.
DXC’s T+1 Readiness Assessment provides a structured evaluation of your post-trade ecosystem. It identifies operational bottlenecks, data quality issues, technology gaps and governance risks, and delivers a clear remediation roadmap to improve settlement efficiency, reduce settlement failure risk and support regulatory readiness.

A T+1 Readiness Assessment is a structured evaluation of your organization’s operational processes, technology platforms, data quality, governance framework and post-trade workflows. It determines your readiness for the transition to T+1 settlement, identifies gaps, evaluates risk areas and delivers a prioritized remediation roadmap to help your organization meet regulatory and operational requirements.
DXC Luxoft assesses readiness across the full post-trade lifecycle, including trade execution and confirmation, allocations, settlement processing, SSI and reference data management, FX and funding operations, corporate actions, securities financing, fund operations, technology infrastructure, integrations and governance controls. This provides a comprehensive view of T+1 readiness across front-, middle- and back-office functions.
Without adequate preparation, firms could face increased settlement failures, operational bottlenecks, heightened regulatory risk, greater reliance on manual processes, reduced settlement efficiency and difficulties meeting accelerated allocation and confirmation timelines. Identifying and addressing these risks early can support a smoother transition and minimize business disruption.
At the end of the assessment, you will receive a T+1 readiness scorecard, a detailed findings report, a domain-level gap analysis, a risk heat map, prioritized remediation recommendations and a practical roadmap outlining the actions needed to improve readiness and support compliance with upcoming T+1 requirements.
DXC Luxoft combines deep capital markets expertise with experience in regulatory transformation, post-trade operations, data management and technology modernization. Our approach evaluates both operational and technology readiness and delivers actionable recommendations that help organizations improve efficiency, reduce settlement risk and build confidence in their transition to T+1.
