The settlement cycle applicable to secondary OTC trading remains negotiable and can vary from T to T+2.

Further to these these market developments, UniCredit GSS Serbia will contact its clients to announce its new settlement deadlines applicable to transactions executed after 1 January 2016.

Impact on investors: As of 1 January 2016 CRHoV will switch to T+2 settlement cycle and investors will therefore have to meet new shorter settlement deadlines.
