Regulations Coming for the Prop Trading Industry?

Is a yet unregulated prop trading environment poised to change in 2024 or the near future? Expert panelists at FMPS will attempt to ascertain that, exploring the ramifications of prop trading to date, as well as its future. An industry change would have huge ripple effects in Australia, which is why this session will be so informative for attendees.

Join industry leaders and ‘challengers’ to capture unpack the industry’s hottest trend, while gleaning important details about what lies ahead. Participants can expect to learn about how funded accounts firms make money (fees vs actual trading), as well as which services funded trading firms still need from industry providers?

Expect other talking points to focus on which products brokers opt for, and what traction do they get, and whether regulators will finally step in, when, and how. The expert panel will include legal specialists, compliance professionals and more, including the following:

· Christopher Balanzategui, CEO, N3TWORX

· Michal Karczewski, CEO, Match-Trade Technologies

· Marcus Fetherston, GM, Prop Trading Services, Blueberry Markets Group

· Julian Allen, COO, The Concept Trading

· Elina Pederson, CRO, Your Bourse

This is one panel you cannot afford to miss later this month, taking place on August 29 from 1500-1540 at the Centre Stage.
