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.

  • The appointment comes as STARTRADER expands its leadership team, recently adding executives across commercial, operations, and trading.

  • With licenses spanning the UAE, UK, Australia, South Africa, Seychelles and Mauritius, the broker continues to strengthen its global presence and partnerships.

 

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. Before that, he held senior positions at MultiBank as Head of Institutional Sales and at Rodeler Limited, the operator behind the 24option brand. His experience also includes work with FXBFI and other well-known international trading firms.

Petro’s appointment is just the latest in a series of senior hires by STARTRADER. The company has been strengthening its leadership bench with additions such as Chief Commercial Officer Moe Padhani, Head of Operations Allan Maira, Client Operations Specialist Clarice Frost and LATAM Manager Vinícius Danze.

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.
