OKX: institutional due diligence FAQ
Key supervisory, licensing, and counterparty verification questions generated from the dataset.
What is OKX's regulatory licence status and supervisory authorisation?
In our imported dataset, OKX (legal entity reference: OKX) holds 9 recorded licence entries, of which 9 carry a "regulated" status and 9 are marked regulated or registered: FSA (Financial Services Authority Seychelles) — licence Number pending check, status: regulated, Offshore; MAS (Monetary Authority of Singapore) — licence Number pending check, status: regulated, Tier-1; VARA (Virtual Assets Regulatory Authority) — licence VL/23/12/003, status: regulated, Tier-2; SEC (Securities and Exchange Commission) — licence Number pending check, status: regulated, Tier-3; SEC (U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission) — licence 1767779, status: regulated, Tier-1; AUSTRAC (Australian Transaction Reports and Analysis Centre) — licence 22636269040, status: regulated, Tier-1; AMF (Autorité des marchés financiers) — licence E2023-106, status: regulated, Tier-1; MFSA (Malta Financial Services Authority) — licence C95813, status: regulated, Tier-2; FinCEN (Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN)) — licence 31000293015755, status: regulated, Tier-1. Institutional due diligence requires verifying that the exact legal entity on your counterparty agreement matches the licensed entity name and registration number on the official FSA, MAS, VARA public register.
Which of OKX's jurisdictions and licences fall within this site's regulatory coverage?
OKX is tracked under our banks and deposit-taking institutions coverage scope based on its institutional service profile (Crypto spot trading, Derivatives contracts, Investment products) rather than a domestic focus licence. Its 9 recorded licences (FSA, MAS, VARA, SEC, AUSTRAC, AMF, MFSA, FinCEN) should be evaluated for cross-border passporting and local solicitation rules.
What is OKX's institutional risk classification, enforcement exposure, and score profile?
OKX carries a "risk level not supplied" classification in the source dataset (composite numeric scores are not supplied for this record). The record flags 1 regulatory warning or complaint count. Because these figures reflect imported source fields rather than primary audit findings, compliance teams should review primary enforcement bulletins directly.
What operational due diligence steps apply to OKX's platforms, entity structure, and complaints?
Before allocating capital or executing trades with OKX (listed execution software: OKX), institutional and retail allocators should: (1) confirm the domain (not supplied in source) against regulator-approved domains to guard against clone firms; (2) verify whether any of the 1 recorded warning/complaint entries or 0 user comments involve withdrawal restrictions or scope violations; and (3) confirm the dispute-resolution ombudsman tied to FSA.
