Due to ever evolving UK Crypto regulation, the first questions an OTC Desk will ask you is to make sure that you qualify. One of the most important factors is your country of residence and citizenship, or in the case of a B2B trade, where your business entity is registered, together with the nationality of the Director. The next likely relevant question is the name of your bank and in which country is it based. Dependant on your answers, the OTC desk will inform you if they can accept you as a client, or may refer you to another OTC desk that may be more suitable to accept your trade.
