Further, Independent reserve has a powerful presence in New Zealand and Australia, which includes more than 120,000 clients and over 8,000 Self Managed Super Funds (SMSFs). Mr. Adrian remarked that he is excited to offer the platform’s tested, proven, and refined services to a much wider audience covering APAC.
Mr. Adrian Przelozny said,
“Following a number of positive moves by Singaporean regulators, including the introduction of the Payments Services Act by the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS), we felt the time was right to make this move. Having worked closely with Australian regulators, and as the only Australian exchange to have insurance on crypto assets, the response we’ve received so far from the Singapore market has been overwhelmingly positive.”
He further added that as part of the expansion process, they would soon be adding the trading pairs of Singaporean dollars in their platform. Furthermore, the cryptocurrency exchange will function under Independent Reserve SG PTE LTD. Find more details to understand with more clarity about the exchange.
