The introduction of T+2 called for accommodation of routines for many participants and their customers. To remedy any additional cost incurred as a result of the restructuring, VPS decided to reduce the price for late registration of transactions in Q4 from NOK 12.50 to NOK 4.00.
The Norwegian market has handled the transition very well. After two months operating with a shortened settlement cycle, we see that the VPS settlement rate remains stable at more than 96%. Anne Ekeren Bjone, Head of Settlement and Clearing, says that there has been no significant increase in late registration of transactions at VPS.
