100% Australian Owned & Operated Since 2010

Global Prime was founded in 2010 and is an Australian owned and operated Financial Services Provider. The Company was originally founded to cater to the then booming user base of the MT4 platform. This was at a time when expert advisors were becoming more mainstream and ‘ECNs’ were starting to become more common among retail brokers.

In 2011, the management of Global Prime asked if Elan Bension and Jeremy Kinstlinger could join the team to take Global Prime to the next level. The decision was made to open up Global Prime's transparent institutional Forex offering to retail investors - it has been in the Company’s DNA ever since.

Why should I choose Global Prime? Right Arrow

We believe that a trader should focus on their trading and not their broker. Our purpose is predicated on ensuring that our interests are aligned with yours. We believe wholeheartedly in the relationship being mutually beneficial and that ultimately, the broker serves the needs of the client above all else. How does this affect your trading? We believe that by taking the conflict of interest that arises from brokers profiting off client losses out of the equation, you can focus on your trading and not your broker. Accordingly, we have made it our mission to create an environment that is conducive to profitable trading as at the end of the day, when you win we win.
