OVEX is the most licensed exchange on the continent; even achieving accreditation in fields outside the realm of cryptocurrency.

OVEX is renowned for quenching the demand for institutional access to crypto in Africa. This is because the market maker is uniquely positioned to offer high-volume investors the best pricing on volume.

Over and above the best pricing on volume – OVEX offers its clients access to a bespoke OTC desk supported by a dedicated trading team – available 24/7 to help these clients meet their investing goals + objectives.
