Netherlands-based One Trading has secured an Organized Trading Facility (OTF) license from the Dutch Authority for the Financial Markets (AFM), enabling the company to operate as a regulated crypto derivatives exchange in Europe.
The digital asset exchange – formerly known as Bitpanda Pro – said its new license establishes One Trading as a Markets in Financial Instruments Directive (MIFID) II trading venue. MIFID II are the European Union's set of regulations that capture trading venues.
