KuCoin Achieves ISO/IEC 42001 Certification for Trusted AI Management System

KuCoin, a leading global cryptocurrency exchange, has achieved ISO/IEC 42001 certification for its Artificial Intelligence Management System (AIMS). This milestone marks an important step in the company's commitment to building trusted AI through responsible governance. The certification covers the AI management system and organizational functions that support it, ensuring AI is governed under a structured and internationally recognized management framework.

As AI becomes increasingly embedded in digital financial infrastructure, its role extends far beyond improving operational efficiency. Today, AI supports critical platform functions such as risk management, anti-money laundering (AML) and fraud detection to market surveillance, customer service, product intelligence, and operational automation. Trusted AI requires clear accountability, transparency, continuous oversight, and responsible governance throughout the entire AI lifecycle.

KuCoin's certified AIMS reinforces the responsible deployment, governance, and continuous improvement of AI across its operations. The certification represents the latest addition to KuCoin's comprehensive Trust Framework, which includes ISO/IEC 27001 for information security, SOC 2 Type II attestation for operational reliability, and ISO 22301 certification for business continuity and operational resilience.

According to BC Wong, CEO of KuCoin, 'AI is becoming a foundational capability of digital financial infrastructure, but greater capability must be matched by greater responsibility. We believe the future of the industry will not be defined simply by more advanced AI, but by more trusted AI.'
