We today announced the filing of application in France to become a registered Digital Asset Service Provider (DASP) under the rigorous requirements set out by Autorité des Marchés Financiers (AMF) and the Autorité de Contrôle Prudentiel et de Résolution (ACPR).
Our decision to register with the AMF follows the incorporation of OKX France in April and demonstrates the dedication to growing our European presence. Registration with the AMF will enable us to offer a suite of products and services to customers in France in full compliance with local regulations.
Beyond the sound and transparent regulatory framework it offers, France has a high concentration of crypto enthusiasts and experienced traders and the highly qualified workforce available, necessary to our development.
Compliance, regulation and transparency are critical factors for the success of the crypto and blockchain industry. Over the years, we have taken measures to ensure compliance, including growing its international compliance team, as well as actively fighting fraud and ransomware. In terms of transparency, we are continuously enhancing the approach to exceed market standards and achieve real-time, trustless verification of reserves, liabilities and solvency.
A letter from OKX Founder and CEO Star Xu
As the CEO of OKX, and a builder at heart, I'm proud to reflect on an extraordinary year of growth and progress. Despite challenges, 2024 was a year of focus, innovation, and resilience. We expanded and enhanced our products, made significant strides in bringing to market a transparent and regulatory compliant onshore business, and added weight to our already deep global executive bench. Most notably, 2024 marked a turning point for the industry, serving as crypto's "comeback year" after a period of heightened uncertainty.
