T+1 and T+0 are Possible Today if the SEC Opens the Market to Competition

Julia Bronson February 24, 2022

Paxos was founded with the belief that market infrastructure needs to be modernized and accelerated because there is too much risk inherent in core utilities as they exist today. That’s why Paxos has been working for years on a solution to shorten settlement. We’ve successfully built a solution called the Paxos Settlement Service that settles trades on T+2, T+1 and T+0 – really, settlement on any cycle. That means, with Paxos, T+1 and T+0 are available today, not next year.  

Hypergrowth vs. Tech Debt

Huw Rogers February 24, 2022

In the last several months, Paxos has hit a stage of development commonly known as “hypergrowth” due to the mainstream adoption of digital assets.

Same-Day Settlement: A Misunderstood Opportunity

Greg Lee December 17, 2021

This conflation in many people’s minds of T+0, Real-Time Gross Settlement (RTGS), and atomic settlement demonstrates just how misunderstood this topic really is. To be clear, T+0 simply means settlement on the same day as the trade, RTGS means settlement at the time of trading, and atomic settlement is the transfer of securities against cash (ie: delivery vs payment) at any settlement time. All of these should be embraced as opportunities that can create efficiencies, cut costs and protect our system from future market failures.
