Settlement times
The deadline by which CBF must receive valid free of payment delivery instructions for same-day settlement with domestic counterparties is 18:00 on SD.
Note: No receipt instruction is required for free of payment transactions in domestic securities in CASCADE.
Timely settlement in CASCADE is dependent on the timely receipt of the settlement confirmation from the local CSD.
Domestic counterparties should note that their deliveries to CASCADE for booking on SD should be instructed in DTC before 10:00 EST.
Important Note: As part of CBF’s internal compliance procedures, all incoming customer instructions will be automatically scanned before entering transaction processing. Instructions that are internally flagged as requiring further manual investigation are set to status pending, with such status immediately reported to the Customer via their chosen media channel(s), until either being manually released for processing or rejected. In order to ensure that instructions being investigated do not miss the applicable deadlines, Customers are advised to input instructions at least 15 minutes before the associated deadline.
