In response to recent actions by a U.S. prosecutor and the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) against several cryptocurrency firms, including CLS Global, the company has issued a statement addressing the situation. CLS Global has contacted U.S. authorities in order to establish a constructive and cooperative dialogue with the hope of resolving the cases, addressing any misunderstandings, and taking any appropriate remedial steps to mitigate risks in the future.
Strict Policy Against U.S. Market Engagement
According to the company, CLS Global has maintained a policy of seeking not to operate within the United States market or conducting business with U.S. citizens, entities, or users. This policy has been in place since the company’s establishment
Filipp Veselov, CEO of CLS Global, was quoted as saying, “Our company has always aimed to maintain a policy that prohibits engagement with U.S. clients, entities, or users. We take our compliance obligations very seriously and have worked to ensure our operations remain separate from U.S. markets and regulatory jurisdictions.” Veselov added, “However, we recognize that there may be areas where we can improve our processes, and we are open to constructive dialogue with regulatory authorities.”
