Binance Appoints Steve Christie as Binance Deputy Chief Compliance Officer

Christie, the former Senior Vice President of Compliance at Binance, left the firm last summer during a regulatory crisis that led to a $4 billion settlement with US authorities in November.

Christie will be instrumental in enhancing Binance’s global compliance program, collaborating with regulators, industry leaders, and internal stakeholders to ensure adherence to regulatory standards. Taking over from Kristen Hecht, the previous Binance Deputy Chief Compliance Officer, Christie will work alongside Noah Perlman, Binance Chief Compliance Officer.

Having temporarily stepped away to focus on health and family, Christie returns energized by Binance’s new leadership and vision. In a blog post, Binance stated, “He comes back reinvigorated by Binance’s new leadership, vision, and direction.” Christie’s reappointment aligns with Binance’s commitment to user protection and robust regulatory compliance.

Positive Trend Amid Regulatory Challenges

Despite facing challenges, including a lawsuit from the US Securities and Exchange Commission and obstacles in re-entering the UK market, Binance has seen a positive trend in investor sentiment. Net inflows of $4.6 billion were recorded between the November settlement and mid-January, surpassing competitors like OKX and Bybit.

Christie, who initially joined Binance in May 2022, brings valuable experience from his previous role at Kraken crypto exchange. His return reflects Binance’s dedication to maintaining a leadership role in the evolving cryptocurrency industry. Christie’s responsibilities include identifying new opportunities for Binance while working closely with regulatory bodies and business leaders to uphold best practices in regulatory compliance.
