Webull Expands Horizons with MiCAR Approval in the EU
In a significant development for digital investment, Webull EU, a subsidiary of Webull Corporation and established online trading platform, has proudly announced its receipt of approval under the
Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation (MiCAR). This landmark decision enables Webull to provide crypto-asset trading services across the
European Union, marking a crucial step in its ambitious growth strategy within the region.
The approval comes at a time when the demand for enhanced access to the ever-evolving cryptoworld is surging. Users are seeking platforms that allow for seamless management of diverse investment portfolios. Webull is committed to catering to these needs by delivering a robust platform that encompasses multiple asset classes. With this, Webull will be facilitating orders for crypto-assets, which will be securely held by them. Furthermore, order execution will occur through a strategic partnership with
Coinbase Luxembourg S.A., ensuring reliable services for all customers.
Andries van Luijk, CEO of Webull Securities (Europe), expressed his enthusiasm for this achievement, stating, “We’re thrilled to have received MiCAR approval from the
Autoriteit Financiële Markten (AFM), a major milestone in Webull's European ventures. As one of the first double-regulated investment firms to obtain MiCAR approval in the Netherlands, we are dedicated to providing secure and compliant access to digital assets, aligning with the extensive regulatory framework of the EU.”
This newly acquired approval allows Webull to roll out regulated custody services for crypto-assets aimed at European customers. Notably, this provides assurance of investor protection and adherence to operational standards as set forth by MiCAR. It represents a significant assurance of safety and compliance for prospective investors in the crypto space.
Following the licensing approval, Webull EU has plans to launch its crypto operations by the end of
2026, with its initial authorization granted for operations in the Netherlands. Approval for the upcoming passporting schemes across the remainder of the EU is presently in the pipeline, promising to broaden Webull’s reach.
