New FCA rules going into effect soon

What’s changing?

Due to recent regulations introduced by the UK Financial Conduct Authority ("FCA"), starting 8 January 2024, there will be some important changes to the OKX experience for new and existing retail users in the UK.

In compliance with the upcoming rules, we are developing a new user experience that is compliant with the requirements set out in the Financial Promotions Regime, and we are excited to continue to offer crypto services to UK users.

Starting 8 January 2024, both new and existing UK customers must pass the two questionnaires as follows:

(1) Client categorisation: We will need to classify your investor profile and confirm that you understand the risks involved.

(2) Appropriateness assessment: We’re also required to ask you a series of questions about investing in cryptoassets.

The assessment is designed to test that you have sufficient knowledge and experience of the specific type of service or cryptoassets being promoted, and to ensure you understand the risk.

In line with these new requirements, those unable to complete the questionnaires or demonstrate a grasp of the risks will become ineligible to hold an OKX account.

Our belief in responsible trading

Some of the regulations provided by the FCA concern how exchanges should talk about the products and services they offer. The goal of the FCA is to make sure users are aware of the risks and tradeoffs associated with trading crypto, which takes the industry closer to the norms of traditional finance. All digital assets come with some degree of risk, and it is the duty of companies who offer them to be clear about it.We're happy to follow these regulations as they fully align with our long-held commitment to responsible trading. We see it as our duty, as one of the world's leading crypto exchanges by trading volume, to educate our customers about it, including:

- the importance of doing your own research

- why it matters to have and stick to a trading plan

- how to measure and mitigate counterparty risk

- how to implement risk management best practices

Some of you will have noticed that most of our videos end with a motto: Trade responsibly. For us, it's more than just a tagline — it's our mission.

If you have any immediate questions or require assistance, please do not hesitate to contact our customer service.

Our Latest Livery Design with McLaren

Written by Haider Rafique, OKX CMO In 1968, McLaren’s M7A car changed everything - it brought home their first F1 victory and introduced the now-iconic papaya. Back then McLaren got off the ground with sponsors one could regard as "old money". It was this marriage between Bruce McLaren and the commercial partners that defined a generation of racing. Now in 2025, a 'new money' is forming to create another defining moment. It starts with our new money app, standing side by side with McLaren as the team looks back on its history to forge a new legacy. This time we have chosen to help fans relive that era while creating our own mark with our partnership with McLaren.
