We are excited to announce that Argentina’s National Securities Commission (CNV) has included Binance in the country’s Virtual Asset Service Providers Registry. This achievement marks Binance’s 20th global regulatory milestone.

The news follows closely on the heels of recent regulatory wins in several regions including India, Kazakhstan and Indonesia, illustrating Binance’s sustained global momentum and adding to previously secured licenses, registrations and authorizations in jurisdictions including Dubai, France, Japan, El Salvador and others.

Releasing full access

Binance’s registration with the Argentine regulator is a result of our consistent commitment to compliance, in Argentina and globally, and to driving the growth of the crypto industry in a safe and sustainable manner. With this development, Binance ensures that its website and app are fully available to users based in Argentina, providing them with access to Binance’s full suite of services and products.

Binance is a forward-looking supporter of regulation and believes it is essential to ensuring that cryptocurrency adoption progresses in the safest and most responsible way possible. As an industry leader with licenses and registrations in 20 jurisdictions worldwide, Binance is committed to advancing the crypto ecosystem’s regulatory compliance, both in Argentina and globally.

According to Guilherme Nazar, Regional Vice President of Binance for Latin America, “Argentina is a key market for Binance. We will continue to work closely with the authorities to develop the industry in the most sustainable and safe way for the benefit of the crypto community and society as a whole.”

Bringing world-class compliance

Built to meet the most stringent global standards, Binance’s compliance program includes robust anti-money laundering (AML) policies and controls and a comprehensive framework to combat the financing of terrorism (CFT).

In addition to stringent AML and CFT controls, core components of Binance’s compliance program include robust identity verification processes (Know Your Customer and Know Your Business, or KYC and KYB) and an industry-leading Financial Crimes Compliance (FCC) unit designed to assist law enforcement in investigating crypto-related crimes and building capacity, thereby strengthening the collaborative security of the ecosystem.

"Binance's commitment to security and regulation is a fundamental part of our strategy," adds Guilherme Nazar. "We are convinced that, in this way, we can contribute significantly to the development of the local and global industry, raising the standards for user protection, in a transparent and efficient financial environment," he concludes.
