However, in connection with the MSRB’s filing to adopt a T+1 settlement process for municipal securities,47 one commenter expressed general support to have consistent rules for municipal securities with those for equities and corporate bonds whenever possible.48 Specifically, the commenter encouraged the MSRB to consider a rule consistent with Exchange Act Rule 15c6–2, to improve the processing of institutional trades through new requirements for market participants related to same-day affirmations.49 III.
