Although strategically located between East and West, Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania often go unnoticed by business leaders. Yet they are gradually establishing themselves as fintech powerhouses.

The Balkan states faced major economic challenges after regaining their independence in 1991. But these challenges also presented new opportunities. The post-Soviet countries made the transition to market economies and rapidly transformed their business environments.

One of the advantages of the Baltic States was the absence of traditional banking infrastructure. Unlike many Western countries that had to move from traditional banking systems to digital platforms, the Baltic States have made a “leapfrog” towards digital financial services.

Today, The Baltic fintech ecosystem consists of over 500 companies covering digital payments, cryptocurrency, insurtech and more. Wise (formerly TransferWise) in Estonia, Vinted in Lithuania and Revolut have all reached “Unicorn” valuations exceed $1 billion (€0.92 million).

Each state has its success stories. Estonia, for example, has the most unicorns per capita in the world. Latvia just won an anti-money laundering (AML) fight, making it a good choice for compliance expertise. Meanwhile, Lithuania has has increased its number of fintech companies from a handful to more than 270.

Every state has a unique approach to fintech. Let’s meet some of the players in this sector.
