The acquisition allows the firm to offer regulated derivatives to institutional clients across 30 EU states.
The firm obtains a full MiCA license, offering over 240 tokens and 300 trading pairs in the EU.
OKX, a global blockchain technology company, announced today
its acquisition of a Markets in Financial Instruments Directive (MiFID II)
licensed entity.
The announcement was made at a private event held at Manoel
Island in Malta. The new entity is expected to become operational later this
year, pending approval from the Malta Financial Services Authority (MFSA).

“Securing a MiFID II license marks a significant
milestone in our mission to integrate digital assets with traditional financial
markets. This authorization strengthens our position in Europe, underscoring
our commitment to regulatory compliance, security, and innovation,” said OKX
Europe CEO, Erald Ghoos.
This acquisition enables OKX to offer regulated derivative
products and services to institutional clients across the European Economic
Area (EEA), including all 30 EU member states.
This move strengthens OKX’s
focus on regulatory compliance and expanding its presence in onshore
financial markets.
“With this license, we are set to deliver
institutional-grade services, partner with tier 1 financial institutions, and
offer regulated investment solutions that enhance market access and empower
investors across the continent,” Ghoos added.

The latest development sees OKX President Hong Fang
commenting: “OKX is committed to advancing a sustainable and transparent
ecosystem in the crypto space. Obtaining a MiFID II license aligns with our
mission to make regulated crypto products accessible across Europe,
underscoring our dedication to responsible expansion with regulatory compliance
at the forefront.”
On January 27, OKX
obtained a full MiCA license. As a result, it can now offer fully localized
services to the European Union (EU) through passporting. EU customers can
access a wide range of regulated crypto exchange products, including OTC
trading, spot trading, bot and copy trading, and over 240 cryptocurrency tokens
across 300 trading pairs.
The platform also
supports 60+ Euro-based trading pairs. OKX's website and mobile app are
customized for local languages, currency displays, and customer support.
