Australian crypto exchange Independent Reserve has become one of the country’s first to be granted a Major Payment Institution Licence by the Monetary Authority of Singapore (“MAS”).

The license grants the exchange the approval to conduct its business as a virtual asset service provider (VASP) within Singapore under the island-state’s Payment Services Act.
