Prop Firms Headquartered in the UK
The United Kingdom is one of the most common bases for prop firms in our directory. As with any country list, headquarters describes where a firm is based, not which traders it accepts or whether it is regulated.
How this list is built: Firms whose headquarters is recorded as the United Kingdom. Sorted by review count. Ratings and review counts are a published third-party snapshot (Prop Firm Match), not our own reviews. Challenge fees are the cheapest standard price we found for a $100K evaluation, or the nearest size, with the date checked. FTMO is a featured affiliate partner and is shown first when it matches.
