Odaily News: Cryptocurrency exchange Binance plans to apply for a license from the UK Financial Conduct Authority (FCA), with some services for UK residents expected to resume in 2027. The application is related to the upcoming new UK digital asset regulations.
The FCA stated in June 2021 that Binance Markets Limited, a UK subsidiary of Binance, was not permitted to conduct regulated activities in the UK. In 2023, Binance announced it would stop new user registrations in response to UK financial promotion regulations.
A Binance spokesperson said the company does not comment on speculation regarding potential license applications. Under the cryptocurrency regulatory framework published by the FCA in June, companies can submit applications from September this year until February 28, 2027, with the regulatory regime taking effect on October 25, 2027.
