CEO Involvement
When CEO approval or involvement is required.
CEO Approval Required
Financial Approvals
- CSR withdrawal ≥300,000 — CEO approval
- USDT withdrawal (any amount) — CEO + CIO approval
- Exceptional refund (>€25K) — CEO approval
Business Decisions
- Major policy exception — CEO approval
- Strategic partnership exception — CEO decision

CEO Is NOT For
Most situations do not require CEO involvement:
- Standard withdrawals (under 300K CSR) → Normal approval chain
- Customer complaints → Support → CIO if needed
- Technical issues → Tech team
- Policy clarification → CIO
- Termination decisions → CIO
How CEO Approval Works
For Large CSR Withdrawals
- Customer requests withdrawal ≥300,000 CSR
- System flags for CEO approval
- CIO prepares approval request
- CEO reviews and approves/denies
- Processing continues after approval
For USDT Withdrawals
- Customer requests USDT withdrawal
- Both CEO and CIO must approve
- Dual signature required
- Processing after both approvals
