At Norwegian Block Exchange AS (NBX), we are committed to acting in the best interests of our clients and maintaining the highest standards of integrity and transparency in the provision of our crypto-asset services.

In accordance with Article 72(2) of Regulation (EU) 2023/1114 (MiCA), we hereby disclose the general nature and sources of potential conflicts of interest that may arise in the course of our business, as well as the measures we have implemented to mitigate such risks

General Nature and Sources of Conflicts of Interest

Conflicts of interest may arise where:

● NBX provides multiple crypto-asset services to the same client or to different clients whose interests may diverge;
● NBX has a financial or other incentive to prioritize its own interests or those of its partners, affiliates, or employees over those of its clients;
● NBX or its employees engage in personal transactions or hold positions in crypto-assets that are subject to client orders;
● NBX acts both as a market operator and as a liquidity provider or market maker in the same trading pair;
● NBX has commercial arrangements with issuers or promoters of certain crypto-assets listed or traded on its platform.

Steps Taken to Mitigate Conflicts of Interest

NBX takes a risk-based and proportionate approach to managing conflicts of interest, in line with its size, structure, and the nature of its crypto-asset services.To help identify and manage situations where conflicts may arise,

NBX has implemented the following general measures:

● Maintaining internal procedures for identifying and assessing potential conflicts on an ongoing basis;
● Encouraging a culture of transparency, where employees are expected to disclose any personal interests or relationships that might give rise to a conflict;
● Segregating roles and responsibilities where appropriate to avoid undue influence orbias in decision-making;
● Requiring employees to refrain from participating in decisions where their impartiality may reasonably be questioned;
● Addressing identified conflicts through appropriate mitigation or, if necessary, disclosure to the client concerned;
● Providing guidance to employees on expected conduct through this Code of Conduct and related internal policies.

NBX reviews its approach regularly to ensure that it remains fit for purpose and aligned with applicable legal and regulatory requirements, including the Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation (MiCA).
