EU Expansion & Market Entry

Strategic and regulatory support for fintechs expanding into new EU markets through passporting, branch establishment, or new licence applications.

Expanding across EU borders requires careful regulatory planning. We advise fintech companies on market entry strategies, including freedom of services passporting, branch establishment, and secondary licence applications in target jurisdictions. Our approach begins with a regulatory mapping of your target markets, identifying the specific requirements, timelines, and supervisory expectations in each jurisdiction. We manage the notification and application processes with home and host regulators, coordinate with local counsel where needed, and help you adapt your compliance framework for multi-jurisdictional operations. We have particular experience with expansion corridors involving Lithuania as a home jurisdiction, including passporting into major EU markets such as Germany, France, the Netherlands, and the Nordics.
