“In a rapidly maturing digital asset market, relying on fragmented risk data is a critical vulnerability. Building a resilient ecosystem demands institutional-grade intelligence.”

MEXC, the world’s fastest-growing digital asset exchange and a pioneer of true zero-fee trading, announced a collaboration with LSEG Risk Intelligence. The partnership enables the integration of World-Check, giving the platform access to the same risk intelligence database used by financial institutions globally and setting a new benchmark for proactive security in the cryptocurrency ecosystem.

Deploying an institutional-grade risk architecture

As institutional and retail adoption of digital assets accelerates, uncompromising security measures have become a critical operational imperative. By adopting LSEG World-Check, MEXC is combining the compliance frameworks of traditional finance with the flexibility of the digital economy. The company said the upgrade sets a new benchmark for the industry and helps ensure its security infrastructure meets regulatory standards, an increasingly important consideration as exchanges face broader expectations around screening, monitoring and compliance controls.

Precision screening and preemptive ecosystem defence

World-Check is widely recognized as a trusted source for risk intelligence. MEXC said it is embedding the data directly into its internal workflows to support real-time screening and cross-referencing against global regulatory and sanctions watchlists. The system also identifies Politically Exposed Persons (PEPs) and continuously tracks adverse media in order to help intercept illicit actors. MEXC said these capabilities strengthen its Anti-Money Laundering (AML) and Counter-Terrorism Financing (CTF) protocols.

Securing the future of digital asset trading

MEXC said it is moving away from reactive regulatory measures and building a preventive approach to platform security. The integration is designed to help the exchange filter out high-risk actors during initial onboarding and continue monitoring existing accounts, reflecting a broader shift in the industry toward ongoing surveillance rather than one-time checks.

Vugar Usi, Chief Executive Officer of MEXC, said: “At MEXC, protecting our users and partners is non-negotiable. By integrating LSEG’s World-Check risk intelligence platform into our digital asset infrastructure, we are setting a new standard for compliance and transparency in the industry. This partnership reflects our steadfast commitment to building a trading environment that not only meets today’s regulatory expectations but anticipates tomorrow’s. We are dedicated to creating an ecosystem where legitimate participants can engage with confidence, and our collaboration with LSEG ensures we have the screening capabilities to deliver on that promise.”

Michael Meadon, Director, Asia Pacific at LSEG Risk Intelligence, said: “As digital assets continue to mature, market participants are rightly expecting the same level of rigour they see across traditional finance. By integrating World-Check into its compliance workflows, MEXC is strengthening its ability to identify high-risk actors, enhance screening at onboarding and through ongoing monitoring, and support a safer trading environment for users globally.”
