Exclusive: TrioMarkets launches in-house prop firm TrioFunded

TrioMarkets, a retail FX and CFDs broker, has officially entered the prop trading space with the launch of its own brand, TrioFunded. The new platform, accessible at triofunded.com, went live this week.

The move comes as a growing number of online brokers develop in-house prop trading offerings, aiming to tap into the trader-challenge model that has become a key driver of new client acquisition. The industry has also seen prop firms acquiring licensed brokers, most notably FTMO’s purchase of OANDA in late 2025.

TrioFunded is not a brokerage itself but is backed by the group’s offshore entity, Triomarkets Capital Ltd, which holds a Mauritius FSC license. The group also operates a CySEC-regulated brokerage via triomarkets.eu, run by EDR Financial Ltd. TrioMarkets was founded by French-Israeli entrepreneur Raphael Ghrenassia, along with his brother David Ghrenassia, who serves as CFO, and another brother, Michael Ghrenassia, who is the group’s CMO.

Raphael Ghrenassia announced the launch on social media, stating: “TrioFunded gives disciplined traders a real chance to access capital through a structured evaluation process. We prioritize consistency, risk management, and long-term growth, not shortcuts.” He described the initiative as strengthening TrioMarkets’ commitment to building a long-term trading ecosystem.

Michael Ghrenassia added: “TrioFunded is a prop trading program built for disciplined traders who want to access capital through a structured evaluation process, with clear rules and a long-term vision. The platform is now live and open.”

The launch positions TrioMarkets among a wave of brokers that are diversifying into the funded-trader model, offering traders a chance to prove their skills and receive access to capital in exchange for a share of profits.
