Welcome to the World of Proprietary Trading

Welcome to Global Accountancy Institute, Inc., and Global Financial Engineering, Inc., where we navigate the thrilling and highly competitive world of proprietary trading. This dynamic and exhilarating environment is reserved for elite performers who master all the skills demanded by the ever-challenging financial markets.

What is Proprietary Trading?

Proprietary trading, often abbreviated as “prop trading,” involves a firm trading its own capital for direct market gain rather than earning commission by trading on behalf of clients. Unlike traditional financial firms that manage the money of external clients, proprietary trading firms operate solely for their own profit.

Our Unique Approach to Proprietary Trading

At Global Financial Engineering, Inc., and Global Accountancy Institute, Inc., we distinguish ourselves in the realm of proprietary trading. Unlike most firms, we have no clients and do not sell or assist in selling products. We do not manage external funds or speculate with other people’s money. Instead, the firm itself is the client. Our traders actively engage in trading stocks, bonds, options, commodities, derivatives, and other financial instruments using our own capital, ensuring that all efforts and profits benefit our partners and employees directly.
