Based on my careful analysis, I haven’t found any explicit guidance from Point72 about specific documentation requirements for initial withdrawals. My experience tells me that most reputable, regulated financial institutions—especially those like Point72, which are regulated under Hong Kong’s SFC—will require proper identity verification before processing withdrawals. This is generally to comply with anti-money laundering (AML) and Know Your Customer (KYC) regulations. Normally, this means a government-issued photo ID, proof of address, and potentially additional supporting documents depending on your jurisdiction and account type. However, what concerns me here is the number of exposure reports and complaints from users who claim they faced withdrawal issues. Some even alleged canceled or blocked withdrawals, and switching of websites. In my view, this risks outweighs the assurance given by mere regulatory status. Therefore, I would proceed with extra caution, ensuring that all communications and document submissions are verified through official Point72 channels—not through intermediaries or unfamiliar platforms. If you are able to contact Point72 directly, I recommend requesting a comprehensive list of required documents in writing before initiating any withdrawal, to avoid misunderstandings or potential delays. Ultimately, transparency and direct contact are key—never send personal documents unless you are certain of the recipient’s legitimacy.
