* **Why do we require Whitelisting?**\
  For regulatory and compliance reasons (AML + KYC / KYB), only users that meet specific criteria can be approved.
* **Who can be Whitelisted?**\
  These criteria mean that <mark style="color:blue;">**Noon**</mark> is only able to whitelist institutions at this time.
* **How to Get Whitelisted**\
  If you are interested in primary market access (minting/redeeming) and fit the above criteria, please reach out at **<whitelist@noon.capital>** and our team will guide you through the onboarding process.
