Our History

PropInsider was established in November 2024 by the team behind CROSSGUARD, a globally recognized provider of business services in the proprietary trading sector.

Shaun Burrow, Director at CROSSGUARD, shares the vision that led to the creation of PropInsider:

“Since I began investing in the proprietary trading industry, I found a lack of reliable information on the various players involved. This challenge inspired the team at CROSSGUARD to create PropInsider, a trusted resource that provides news, reviews, and tools for traders and stakeholders in the funded account provider space.”

Our Vision

To bring clarity, transparency and credibility to the prop trading industry.

Proprietary trading is one of the fastest-growing yet least regulated areas of the financial sector. At PropInsider, our mission is to bring greater visibility and understanding to this evolving space, making it more transparent, accessible and navigable for traders at all levels.

By highlighting the firms, platforms and practices that define the industry today, we strive to provide traders with the insights, resources and opportunities they need to make informed decisions and pursue long-term success.
