CMA is based in Kenya and covers the Kenya jurisdiction. As a Tier 2 regulator, it requires AML/KYC registration and provides meaningful oversight, though investors should also verify whether the exchange holds additional licences.
Visit the official CMA website and use their public register or licence verification tool. Enter the exchange's registered name to confirm its current status. This is the most reliable way to verify regulatory standing.
CMA regulation primarily addresses licensing, AML/KYC compliance, and operational standards. Compensation for hacks depends on the exchange's own insurance fund or Proof of Reserves commitments, not typically a government-backed compensation scheme. Always choose exchanges with published cold storage ratios and Proof of Reserves attestations.
