据银行业高管透露，纽西兰和澳洲预计将在五年内加入全球股票交易次日结算（T+1）的转型行列。这项转型将在两国关键的清算和结算系统准备就绪后进行，以适应全球金融市场的发展趋势。

如果澳洲证券交易所（ASX）能如期在2029年完成其结算平台CHESS的部署，澳洲最快可能在2030年实现T+1结算。考虑到纽西兰与澳洲市场的紧密联系，纽西兰预计也将在同一时间同步完成这项转换。

随著美国、加拿大和墨西哥在2024年率先实施T+1结算，以及英国和欧洲承诺在2027年10月跟进，缩短结算周期的全球趋势正不断加速。这种转型步伐的不一致，目前正对来自T+2市场的投资者在T+1市场进行交易时带来挑战与压力。

New Zealand and Australia are expected to join the global transition toward next-day (T+1) settlement for stock transactions within five years, according to a senior banking executive. This transition will take place once key clearing and settlement systems in both countries are fully prepared to adapt to global financial market trends.

Assuming the Australian Securities Exchange (ASX) meets its target of rolling out its CHESS settlement platform by 2029, Australia could implement T+1 settlement as early as 2030. Given the strong interconnection between the two markets, New Zealand is expected to make the transition simultaneously.

The global shift to shorter settlement cycles is accelerating, with the US, Canada, and Mexico leading the way in 2024, and the UK and Europe committing to the change in October 2027. The uneven pace of this transition is currently creating challenges and pressure for investors from T+2 markets when trading in T+1 environments.
