I thought DVP meant the payment and delivery happen simultaneously, so I lean towards option B, but I could be mixing it up with another concept.

DVP settlement, that's the one where the cash and securities are exchanged, right? I'm pretty confident the correct answer is B, since the buyer has to pay at the same time as delivery. Nailed it!

Okay, I've got this. For a DVP settlement, the buyer has to make the cash payment before or at the same time as the securities are delivered. So the answer has to be B. Feels good to have that one figured out.
