STARTRADER Appoints Daniel Petro as Head of Partnerships

Key Takeaways

  • Daniel Petro joins STARTRADER as Head of Partnerships, bringing experience from Markets.com, MultiBank and 24option.

Retail FX and CFDs broker STARTRADER has brought on Daniel Petro as its new Head of Partnerships, further building out its executive team as part of a broader recruitment push.

Based in Dubai, Petro brings with him a strong background in institutional sales and partnerships. Most recently, he was Head of Global Sales at Markets.com.

STARTRADER has also been pushing into the B2B space with the launch of STARprime, led by former INFINOX CEO Jay Mawji, while Samin Aref Zaher has been brought in as Head of Trading for the division.

Operating across multiple regulated entities worldwide, STARTRADER holds licenses from the UAE’s Securities and Commodities Authority (SCA), the UK’s Financial Conduct Authority (FCA), the Australian Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC), and regulators in South Africa, Seychelles and Mauritius.

By bringing Petro on board, the broker is aiming to expand its partnerships and reinforce its international network, while tapping into the experience of senior executives who have worked across some of the industry’s biggest global trading brands.
