Mutual fund redemption proceeds must generally be paid within two business days after the date on which the NAV per security used to establish the redemption price is calculated, assuming all required redemption documentation and procedures have been satisfied. This settlement requirement is designed to provide investors with reasonably prompt access to proceeds after redeeming conventional mutual fund securities. The rule should not be confused with the investor ' s statutory right of withdrawal, which can also involve a two-business-day period but relates to cancelling a purchase rather than receiving redemption proceeds. The current NI 81-102 framework continues to require redemption proceeds to be paid no later than two business days after the applicable pricing date. Therefore, the correct answer is C. 2 business days .
