Brokerage executive Youssef Galal has joined FunderPro as a Business Development Manager.
Galal has been running an affiliate and IB website called Best2Traders.
However, prior to starting that company, he was working at rival prop trading company The Trading Pit.
Galal started in the retail trading industry over a decade ago at FXDD, where he acted as an introducing broker.
More recently, he acted as an introducer in the MENA region for brokerages Tickmill and FxPro.
Malta-based FunderPro has become one of the major players in the prop space, and is somewhat unique in giving funded traders an account with live funds if they are successful in passing a challenge.
The company operates a B2C arm, as well as a B2B division.
The firm is also part of a wider group entity, that also encompasses trading technology provider TradeLocker.
