We exist to make the proprietary trading industry legible.

Proprietary trading is one of the most influential — and least understood — corners of global finance. Trillions of dollars in daily volume flow through firms most people have never heard of, and a new generation of funded trader programs has put institutional-style capital allocation into the hands of hundreds of thousands of retail traders.

proprietarytrading.com exists to map that landscape clearly. We publish a structured firm directory, original industry data, editorial coverage of news and regulation, and a working education library — all written for people who want to understand the industry on its own terms.

Methodology

Data is sourced from regulatory filings, public statements, program-level disclosures, direct reporting, and industry news.
