Goal and Principles
Our Company adheres to the policy of combating money laundering and terrorist financing (AML) and complies with the standards of «Know Your Customer» (KYC). The policy is aimed at preventing the use of our services for illegal activities and is mandatory for all employees.
What is Money Laundering
Money laundering is the conversion of funds or financial instruments obtained illegally into assets or investments that appear legitimate (transfer from the «shadow» economy to the official one), in order to conceal the true source of origin.
Company Approach
- The Company has implemented internal AML/KYC rules and procedures and requires compliance from all employees.
- We maintain a complete record of financial transactions and interactions with each client, including logs of checks and compliance decisions.
- The Company reserves the right to suspend any client operations if there are suspicions of illegal activity and/or until the completion of verification.
Client Identification (KYC) and Due Diligence
- Our platform has implemented a Due Diligence system (initial and periodic reliability check), which ensures work only with real individuals and legal entities.
- The client is obliged to provide copies of personal documents for the verification of the trading account within the framework of international KYC policy and to reduce the risk of fraud.
List of Documents (Example)
- Individuals: valid passport/ID/driver's license; document confirming address (utility bill, bank statement, etc., issued no more than 3 months ago).
- Legal entities: founding documents, information about beneficial owners, bank details/statements, powers of attorney for authorized persons.
At the Company's discretion, additional documentation may be required (Enhanced Due Diligence), including confirmation of the source of funds/wealth, in cases of increased risks (PEP, sanctioned jurisdictions, unusual transactions, etc.).
Monitoring and Response Measures
- The Company conducts continuous monitoring of client operations and behavior to identify unusual/suspicious activity.
- If signs of money laundering or terrorist financing are detected, operations may be suspended, funds temporarily blocked until the completion of the investigation, and information forwarded to competent authorities in accordance with the law.
Data Storage and Confidentiality
- All KYC/AML materials and transaction records are stored for the legally established periods and processed in accordance with the privacy policy and data protection requirements.
- Access to data is restricted and provided only to authorized employees and competent authorities upon request.
