Here’s the list of documents required for onboarding a company account.

• ID and proof of address for the account operator
• Copy of the ASIC company extract

Providing a trusted and secure platform is our number one priority. We have always taken a risk-averse approach to the way we manage our business and client assets. We pride ourselves on doing things the right way and hold ourselves to the highest standards. We keep your assets safe in the following way:

• No commingling of client assets.
• We hold 1:1 reserves of all client assets.
• The vast majority of crypto is held in offline cold storage vaults located in Australia.
• Our books are balanced, and there is no debt on our balance sheet.
• We engage external auditors to undertake an annual audit of our financial statements in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards. The audit includes verification of all client asset holdings – both fiat and crypto.

These practices have led to Independent Reserve becoming the first digital currency exchange licensed in Singapore.
