KYC / AML Policy

🔍

Identity Verification

All investors and issuers must submit government-issued photo ID, proof of address, and — for entities — company registration documents and beneficial ownership declaration.

🛡️

AML Screening

All applicants are screened against international sanctions lists, Politically Exposed Persons (PEP) databases, and adverse media sources prior to onboarding.

📊

Investor Classification

Investors are classified as Retail, Accredited, Institutional, or Family Office based on income, net worth, and investment experience — determining applicable limits.

🔄

Ongoing Monitoring

All transactions are monitored for unusual patterns. Suspicious transactions are reported to Zimbabwe's Financial Intelligence Unit (FIU) as required by law.

📅

Annual Refresh

KYC records are refreshed annually. Investors who do not complete their annual review have their accounts suspended until compliant.

⚖️

Compliance Officer

A qualified Compliance Officer reviews all KYC submissions before approval. No automated approval — every application has human oversight.

Safeguards

Investor Protection

Smart Contract Audit

All 11 platform smart contracts are independently audited by Certik or Hacken prior to mainnet deployment. Audit reports are publicly available.

SPV Asset Ring-Fencing

Each listed asset is held in a separately registered Special Purpose Vehicle. Issuer insolvency cannot affect tokenised asset holders — their claim is against the SPV.

Oracle Price Integrity

Asset prices are set exclusively by ICAZ-qualified independent valuers using documented methodology. No algorithmic or market-manipulable pricing.

Circuit Breakers

Automated trading halts trigger if an asset price moves more than 10% in a single session. This prevents flash crashes and manipulation.

Escrow Distribution

Dividend and coupon payments are pre-funded into the DividendDistributor smart contract before distribution. Investors can claim at any time — funds cannot be recalled.

Risk Disclosures

⚠️ Investing in tokenised assets carries risk. You may lose some or all of your invested capital.

TokenEquityX does not guarantee investment returns. Past performance of listed assets is not indicative of future results. All investment decisions should be based on your own research and risk appetite.

Mining equity tokens (ACME, GDMR) carry higher risk than income-bearing assets (ZWIB, HCPR) and are classified as MEDIUM-HIGH to HIGH risk by our independent research team.

All investors should read the full prospectus for each listed asset before investing. Prospectuses are available in the Documents section of each asset's detail page.

Custody & Legal Structure

Tokenised assets are not direct ownership of the underlying physical asset. Token holders hold a beneficial interest in the SPV that owns the asset. The SPV structure provides legal ring-fencing and is registered with the Zimbabwe Registrar of Companies.

Disclosure Rules

Issuer Ongoing Disclosure Requirements
