MAS grants OKX an MPI licence

The company can now provide cross-border money transfer services.

Cryptocurrency exchange OKX has been granted an in-principle approval by the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) for a major payment institution (MPI) licence.

The approval allows OKX to provide digital payment token and cross-border money transfer services in Singapore under the Payment Services (PS) Act 2019.

“The in-principle approval from MAS is not only a validation of our commitment to date, but also an exciting opportunity for us to continue as a responsible contributor to the Singapore crypto ecosystem.” OKX President, Hong Fang, said.

OKX is currently available for users in Singapore through web, iOS, or Google Play apps.

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
