Binance Signs Agreement With Cambodian Regulator to Help With Regulations

Binance continues its relentless push into Asia by signing a Memorandum of Understanding with Cambodia’s Securities and Exchange Regulator (SERC) to guide the adoption of a digital asset framework.

His Excellency Mr. Sou Socheat, Director-General of the SERC, sees this new partnership as the first step in legitimizing the digital asset industry. At the same time, Gleb Kostarev, Binance Regional Asia head, considers the partnership an opportunity for Cambodia to lead the Southeast Asian market.

Socheat said the SERC has already begun work on regulations but has not yet issued any digital asset licenses. Its north-western neighbor Thailand has only granted eight. As part of the Memorandum of Understanding, Binance will lend technical knowledge on the operation of the digital asset market and train the securities regulator accordingly.

Leon Foong, who heads up Binance’s Asia-Pacific market, said that the company does not believe in monopolizing a market where crypto penetration is under 10%. Instead, it would look to partner with regional heavyweights like Bitkub, which handles 90% of the crypto trading volume in Thailand. This strategy would contribute to market growth and education of both citizens and regulators on the benefits of blockchain technology.
