When calculating a pair cut-off time, take the earlier of the two currencies. When calculating available deal terms taking the longer of the two.

For example, on a KES/USD trade, the inward settlement time of KES is 11:00, and the opposing trade USD/KES is 11:00. KES/USD is available on T+0, T+1 and T+2 deal types.

If funds are not received before this time the trade is rolled, and opposing currency is paid out the next working day.

T+0 Trading Cut-Off refers to the latest time an FX deal can be booked for same-day settlement.

T+1 and T+2 deals are available throughout the day with no booking cut-off times. Payment is inward and outward cut-off times still apply on the day of settlement.

If a T+0 deal is booked funds must still arrive prior to the inward settlement cut-off.

Where funds already sit with Verto, in a client's wallet, exceptions can be made to the inward settlement cut-off as long as the outward settlement has not passed. This is subject to confirmation of FX Dealing team on a case-by-case basis.

Repeat failure to settle funds on time will result in limitations being placed on trading terms. Typically this takes the form of ineligibility for T+0 trading, and earlier settlement cut-off times by 2hrs for the respective currency.

Outward Settlement Cut-Off refers to the cut-off time for outward payment processing requests to be made. Payment requested before this time will be processed the same day subject to compliance review not being required.
