The process of completing an Order to Buy or Sell securities. Once a Trade is executed, it is reported by a Confirmation Report; Settlement (payment and Transfer of ownership) occurs in the US between one (mutual funds) and five (stocks) days after an order is executed. Settlement times for exchange-listed stocks are in the process of being reduced to three days in the U. S. The time varies greatly across countries. In France, for example settlements are only once per month. |
