T+1: This means that after a trade, the settlement (delivery of shares and payment) needs to happen in one business day instead of the current two (T+2).

Illegal Shorting: This involves selling borrowed shares without proper disclosure or with the intent to not repurchase them, manipulating the stock price downward. T+1 doesn't address the legality of shorting itself, but it could potentially make illegal shorting more difficult by:

*Reducing the time window for illegal maneuvers.

*Increasing pressure to locate borrowable shares due to quicker settlement.

Failures to Deliver (Ftds): These happen when a seller cannot deliver the promised shares on settlement day. T+1 might lead to a temporary increase in FTDs initially as market participants adjust. However, the SEC believes their existing regulations are sufficient to handle these.

Overall, T+1 aims to improve efficiency and reduce risk in settlements. While it might indirectly make some illegal activities trickier, it's not a direct solution for addressing them.
