Key supervisory, licensing, and counterparty verification questions generated from the dataset.

What is Okcoin's regulatory licence status and supervisory authorisation?

In our imported dataset, Okcoin (legal entity reference: Okcoin) holds 6 recorded licence entries, of which 3 carry a "regulated" status and 3 are marked regulated or registered: SEC (U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission) — licence 1767779, status: regulated, Tier-1; FinCEN (Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN)) — licence 31000122737962, status: exceeded scope, Tier-1; FINTRAC (Financial Transactions and Reports Analysis Centre of Canada (FINTRAC)) — licence M20929749, status: exceeded scope, Tier-1; FinCEN (Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN)) — licence 31000155908109, status: exceeded scope, Tier-1; SEC (Securities and Exchange Commission) — licence Number pending check, status: regulated, Tier-3; FSA (Financial Services Agency) — licence Kanto Local Finance Bureau No. 20, 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 SEC, FinCEN, FINTRAC public register.

Which of Okcoin's jurisdictions and licences fall within this site's regulatory coverage?

Okcoin is registered at 21/F, Sino Plaza, 255–257 Gloucester Road, Causeway Bay, Hong Kong and tracked under our forex and cfd brokers authorised in europe scope based on its institutional service profile (Crypto spot trading, Derivatives contracts, Investment products) rather than a domestic focus licence. Its 6 recorded licences (SEC, FinCEN, FINTRAC, FSA) should be evaluated for cross-border passporting and local solicitation rules.

What is Okcoin's institutional risk classification, enforcement exposure, and score profile?

Okcoin carries a "risk level not supplied" classification in the source dataset (composite numeric scores are not supplied for this record). The record flags 0 regulatory warning or complaint counts and 3 licence records with elevated status flags (FinCEN: exceeded scope, FINTRAC: exceeded scope, FinCEN: exceeded scope). 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 Okcoin's platforms, entity structure, and complaints?

Before allocating capital or executing trades with Okcoin (listed execution software: Okcoin, Buy Bitcoin & Crypto), 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 0 recorded warning/complaint entries or 0 user comments involve withdrawal restrictions or scope violations; and (3) confirm the dispute-resolution ombudsman tied to SEC.
