The Baltics are a special land, where people share common values, are connected by similar drive and vision.

We know the local people and businesses and we want to be the preferred partner in financial matters for our customers. We will do that by being accessible, fast and predictable.
Being pan-Baltic gives us the size and the strength to make a real difference, while still being a local bank. Although we have Nordic roots, we were born here, and we make our decisions here. We combine global knowledge with local expertise.
Luminor is the third-largest provider of financial services in the Baltics, with some 870 000 clients and 2 300 employees. In the Baltic region, it has a market share of 14.9% in deposits and 16.9% in lending as at the end of March 2021. Luminor has total shareholders’ equity of 1.7 billion EUR and a CET1 ratio of 23.4%.
