Welcome to the inaugural session of our thought-provoking series, Global Intellectual Reasoning and Learning Sessions (GIRLS), hosted by the esteemed Dr. Glen Brown. GIRLS is designed to ignite intellectual curiosity, foster deep discussions, and facilitate knowledge transfer among individuals passionate about the realms of finance, trading, and beyond. Our journey begins with a focus on the cornerstone of modern financial markets: Proprietary Trading.

Today’s Focus: Global Elite Proprietary Trading Program (GEPTP)

Question for Discussion: “Why is proprietary trading considered a pivotal element in modern financial markets?”

Proprietary trading, the act where firms trade stocks, bonds, currencies, commodities, their derivatives, or other financial instruments with the firm’s own money, rather than using clients’ money, to make a profit for itself, has been a topic of both acclaim and scrutiny. It’s a practice that embodies the essence of risk and reward, impacting liquidity, market efficiency, and volatility.
