KuCoin EU Achieves MiCAR Compliance Milestone, Names Sabina Liu as Managing Director for Next Phase of European Growth

Vienna, Austria — KuCoin EU has declared the appointment of Sabina Liu as the Managing Director of KuCoin EU. In her new capacity, Sabina will be tasked with steering the company’s strategic growth in Europe, managing regulatory compliance, and enhancing local market activities.

Before assuming her current position, Sabina Liu was at the helm of KuCoin Exchange’s institutional business, where she facilitated the growth of institutional partnerships and market expansion, bolstering the platform’s capabilities in the institutional sector.

Prior to her tenure at KuCoin, Sabina dedicated 14 years to the London Stock Exchange Group (LSEG), where she directed business development efforts throughout the Asia-Pacific region and maintained relationships with international investment banks engaged in secondary market trading on the London Stock Exchange.

The new management appointments come on the heels of KuCoin EU’s successful acquisition of its MiCAR license, a significant regulatory achievement under the EU’s Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation.

This milestone signifies an important phase in KuCoin EU’s regulatory journey and facilitates its transition into a new era focused on stable operations, tailored services, and long-term growth in Europe.

BC Wong, CEO of KuCoin, remarked: “Europe is a vital market in KuCoin’s long-term and compliance strategy. Securing the MiCAR license is a crucial advancement. It not only lays down a robust regulatory foundation but also positions KuCoin EU for enduring and compliant operations throughout the region.

Sabina’s extensive experience in institutional markets and traditional financial frameworks will be crucial as KuCoin EU embarks on its next development phase and improves services for users in Europe.”

Sabina Liu stated: “MiCAR offers a clear and uniform regulatory structure for the European crypto sector. With the establishment of our essential compliance foundations, KuCoin EU will now prioritize enhancing local operations and consistently improving user services while striving for long-term, sustainable growth within a compliant framework.”

Acquiring the MiCAR license is not merely a regulatory success but also a key part of its long-term European infrastructure.

By operating within a defined and harmonized regulatory framework, KuCoin EU is set to further improve service quality, local engagement, and operational resilience throughout the region.
