Compliance

I. Preliminary considerations

CRYPTOMKT is ensured by the Manual de Prevención de Delitos (Crime Prevention Manual) which has been mainly written to prevent Illegal Laundering Assets and terrorist financing. This Manual which is considered essential for this company development on regular daily basis, has elaborated the required policies and procedures to avoid web platform www.cryptomkt.com illegal use or participation in these crimes or others included in applicable national laws.

This Manual was drawn up by taking into account CRYPTOMKT activities i.e. cryptocurrency intermediation. In other words, this is a web platform which allows trading over them, thus, this platform permits some digital asset exchange between sellers and buyers in a technologically safe environment (Blockchain). User activities permitted by this platform are besides the already mentioned trading; market observation transactions, other user contacts through public media, money deposits and withdraws by means of bank transactions.

This activity has permitted the development of a global and decentralized economy where public information relies as a key element. However, even though this technology benefits such as people interactions could be countless, its positioning has raised many challenges from the legal compliance approach. Therefore, being CryptoMKT completely aware of these challenges and taking account of the essential technological component of this business development, it has decided to use this technological component in many procedures to prevent illegal laundering assets and terrorist financing. With the purpose of reaching the required law and regulation standards from different countries and from Chile.

Following the same topic, and in accordance with Nº49 Unidad de Análisis Financiero Chilena UAF newsletter (Chilean Financing Analysis Unity), this document includes many contents, this is the case of; definitions for understanding the manual, client knowledge procedures and policies, procedures for identifying and reporting suspected operations, procedures for timely and reserved notice regarding operations performed by subjects included in United Nations lists or by subjects belonging to non-cooperating countries, and law and ethical standards of company’s employees. Due to this Manual relevance, CRYPTOMKT has led training courses for all its employees.

It is important to point out the fact that procedures and policies to be described are a summarised version of CRYPTOMKT Crime Prevention Manual. Thus, there will not be included all its parts in details.

II. Policies and procedures for knowing the client (KYC and DDC)

Within the framework of due diligence, it is CRYPTOMKT’s responsibility to identify and know all its clients, in order to have an effective tool which would allow us from a risk management perspective to prevent Illegal Laundering Assets and terrorist financing.

This is why CRYPTOMKT has a preventing system based on “KYC” (English acronym for “Know your costumer”). This concept infers a sequence of procedures and protocols which allow us to identify our clients, to know their activities, their most important characteristics in terms of their operations and of their supporting principles, i.e. where they are underlain in accordance with the risk profiles identified by CRYPTOMKT.

Based on information gathered within the framework of KYC processes, CRYPTOMKT creates a digital “Client file”, where personal data, client number, plus a detailed operation register be identified.

Therefore, CRYPTOMKT’s KYC considers the international structure of operations permitted to be performed through its platform. This provides digital mechanisms that allow dynamic and particular condition analyses of its users. Thus, patterns and profiles are possible to be made, plus monitoring, detection and eventually it is possible to report a client operations might the case be qualified as under suspicion.

Due Diligence and Knowledge of the Client (acronym in Spanish DDC Debida Diligencia y Conocimiento del Cliente DDC) are revealed mainly in the following procedures.
