Focus on Preventing Incidents Involving "Transactions Requiring Special Attention"

DigitalX, Mirae Asset Group's digital asset investment platform, said on Oct. 22 that it had conducted compliance training for all employees.


The training, held the previous day under the leadership of the Risk Management Division, focused on "The Importance of Preventing Transactions Requiring Special Attention." These transactions refer to asset transfers made at users' request, such as airdrops, event reward payments, payment cancellations, inheritance and transfers sent in error, where employee intervention in manual (non-automated) processing creates a high risk of errors.


The training reflected growing calls for stronger oversight, including the Digital Asset Exchange Alliance (DAXA)'s addition in July of control procedures for transactions requiring special attention to its best-practice guidelines for risk management.

The training covered processing procedures for each type of transaction requiring special attention; approval criteria for event reward payments and the operation of separately managed accounts; internal and external reporting procedures in the event of an incident; and analysis of recent incidents in the industry. In particular, it reviewed control procedures step by step to prevent erroneous or excessive payments. The training also covered reporting procedures at each stage in the event of an incident.


Employees also reviewed compliance requirements they must observe, including the Code of Ethics, the Virtual Asset User Protection Act, and the prohibition on using material nonpublic information.



Oh Sejin, CEO of DigitalX, said, "Transactions requiring special attention are an area where even a small mistake can directly affect customer assets and market confidence. We will continue to enhance our internal control systems to ensure that all employees strictly follow established procedures and create a trading environment that customers can use with confidence."
