In 2025, more than 70% of new fintech companies in Europe and Asia face licensing delays, losing up to 18 months of operational time and hundreds of thousands of euros on additional approvals and repeated reviews. Behind this dry statistic lies a fundamental problem: most entrepreneurs and finance directors do not understand how a bank license in the EU fundamentally differs from a financial license, what opportunities and restrictions they bring to a business, and how to choose the optimal scaling path amid strict regulation and growing competition.

Why can obtaining a license in Luxembourg take twice as long as in Lithuania? What minimum capital is required for an EMI, PI or a universal bank? What risks and AML compliance costs should be budgeted to avoid sanctions and account freezes? And finally, which type of license will realistically give your fintech startup access to cross-border payments, lending and integration with VISA and MasterCard?

Banking license in the EU: key features

A banking license in the EU is an authorization issued by a national regulator or the European Central Bank (ECB) that allows carrying out classic banking activities: accepting deposits, lending, opening accounts for individuals and legal entities, issuing bank cards and integrating with international payment systems.

Main requirements for a banking license

• Minimum share capital: for a universal bank: from EUR 5 million; for specialized banks (for example, in Lithuania), from EUR 1 million. Capital must be supported by transparent sources of funding and comply with capital structure requirements.
• Top management qualifications: members of the board of directors and executives are required to have experience in the banking sector, a proven reputation and no conflicts of interest. At COREDO we always recommend preparing a separate dossier for each candidate, including certificates of good standing and references from previous employers.
• Office and residency requirements: the bank must have a physical office in the licensing country, and key persons must be residents or hold long-term visas. For example, in the United Kingdom at least one director must be a resident of the country, and in Luxembourg: having a real office and staff is a mandatory requirement.
• Internal audit and control systems: mandatory presence of departments for internal audit, AML compliance, risk management and disclosure of accepted risks.

Regulatory bodies and supervision

• European Central Bank (ECB): supervises systemically important banks and coordinates the Single Supervisory Mechanism (SSM) within the EU.
• National regulators: in Germany – BaFin, in the United Kingdom, FCA and PRA, in Luxembourg – CSSF. Each authority applies its own requirements to capital structure, management qualifications and Due Diligence procedures.
• Single banking license in the EEA: allows, after obtaining a license in one EU country, to open branches and provide services in all countries of the European Economic Area without re-licensing.

Examples of countries with banking licenses

• United Kingdom: a flexible system for digital banks, but strict residency and capital requirements.
• Germany: a high capital threshold, strict BaFin supervision, popular for large international banks.
• Luxembourg: developed infrastructure for private banking and wealth management, but a lengthy licensing process and strict physical presence requirements.

Financial license and its types in Europe

Financial license covers activities not related to classic banking: electronic payments, issuance of electronic money, mobile wallets, integration with VISA and MasterCard, processing payments and settlements.

Main types of financial licenses

• EMI license (Electronic Money Institution): allows issuing electronic money, opening accounts for clients, integrating payment cards, but does not allow accepting deposits or granting loans.
• PI license (Payment Institution): permits providing payment services (transfers, acquiring, payments via mobile and digital wallets), but not issuing electronic money or opening full-fledged accounts.

EMI and PI licenses: differences

Licensing in EU countries

• Lithuania: one of the fastest and most accessible jurisdictions for obtaining EMI and PI licenses, minimum capital 350,000 euros, review times from 3 to 6 months. A solution developed by COREDO for a fintech startup in Vilnius allowed the client to enter the market in 4.5 months, integrate payments with VISA and MasterCard and scale to 7 EEA countries.
• United Kingdom: strict requirements for physical presence, mandatory office and residency of key persons, but a developed infrastructure for integration with international payment systems.
• Luxembourg: high entry threshold, lengthy due diligence process, but a prestigious jurisdiction for large fintech companies.

Banking license vs financial license in the EU

Key differences and business impact

How can I obtain a license in the EU?

licensing process in the EU: a step-by-step guide — a set of formal and practical stages that companies must go through to operate legally in the European market. At each step there are a number of general requirements for the applicant that directly affect the likelihood of license approval and further interaction with the regulator.

General requirements for the applicant

• Documents: founding documents, business plan, capital structure, information on beneficiaries, resumes and references for the management.
• Company structure: transparent corporate structure, presence of qualified directors and shareholders, absence of offshore elements.

Specifics of obtaining a banking license

• Verification of funding sources: the regulator requires disclosure of all sources of capital, proof of the legality of the origin of funds, analysis of capital structure and financing plans.
• Due diligence: comprehensive check of all participants, internal control procedures, AML systems and risk management.
• Internal audit: mandatory internal audit department, regular checks and reports for the regulator.

Obtaining EMI and PI licenses

• Minimum capital: for EMI, €350,000; for PI, from €20,000 to €125,000, depending on the volume of operations.
• Office and physical presence: mandatory office in the licensing country, presence of staff, residency of key persons.
• Review timelines: in Lithuania, from 3 to 6 months; in the United Kingdom: from 6 to 12 months; in Luxembourg, up to 18 months.

Which jurisdictions should I choose?

• Luxembourg: high entry threshold, lengthy due diligence, strict requirements for physical presence, prestigious for private banking.
• Lithuania: fast process, minimal capital, popular for fintech startups.
• United Kingdom: developed infrastructure, strict supervision, mandatory office and residency.

Regulation and compliance: AML, financial monitoring, risks

Regulation and compliance in the field of AML, financial monitoring and risk management are becoming key tasks for financial organizations amid tightening legislative requirements and the constant complication of money laundering schemes. Effective implementation of core requirements allows not only to minimize legal and reputational risks, but also to build transparent internal control processes.

Main AML and financial monitoring requirements

• AML requirements: mandatory implementation of customer identification (KYC) procedures, transaction monitoring, reporting of suspicious operations, and regular staff training.
• Financial monitoring: automated control systems, integration with national and international registers, disclosure of information about risks and procedures for managing them.
• Internal audit: regular inspections, reports for the regulator, independent assessment of the effectiveness of AML and risk management procedures.

Impact of PSD2 and other regulatory acts

• PSD2: an EU directive regulating payment systems, opens access to banks’ APIs, strengthens requirements for security, transparency and protection of customer data.
• Sanctions and fines: for non-compliance with AML and financial monitoring – fines of up to 10% of annual turnover, account freezes, license revocation, prohibition from operating.

Licensing of fintech startups in the EU

choice of license for a fintech startup determines not only the formal framework of the company’s operations but also opens up different scenarios for scaling the business in the EU. The specifics of regulation and licensing requirements in the European Union require startups to carefully choose between a banking license, an EMI and a PI — this choice determines the possible business model, time-to-market and the project’s future development.

Criteria for choosing a banking, EMI or PI license

• Business model: if the goal is lending and deposits, a banking license is required; for electronic payments, mobile wallets and issuance of electronic money: EMI; for acquiring and payment operations – PI.
• Capital costs: a banking license requires large investments; EMI and PI: minimal capital and a rapid market entry.
• Licensing speed: EMI and PI licenses can be obtained in 3–6 months, a banking license: from 12 to 24 months.

Examples of business models and licenses

• Payment platform: an EMI license is optimal, integration with VISA and MasterCard, issuance of electronic money, opening accounts for customers.
• Mobile wallet: EMI or PI license, fast launch, minimal capital requirements.
• Digital bank: banking license, access to lending, deposits, international expansion.

Cross-border expansion opportunities

• Passporting of licenses: after obtaining a license in one EEA country you can provide services in all countries of the area without re-licensing.
• Restrictions: for banks – practically none, for EMI and PI: restrictions on types of services and operational limits.

Frequently Asked Questions

The modern market offers entrepreneurs and investors a wide range of legal structures for investment funds. The most in demand are SPV (Special Purpose Vehicle), unit investment funds (PIF), closed-end investment funds (ZPIF) and specialized forms, such as ZISIF. The choice of structure determines not only the tax burden and level of asset protection, but also the possibilities for scaling, attracting investors, risk management and compliance with international standards.

What is an SPV and why is it needed?

An SPV is a legal entity created to implement a specific investment task or to structure a transaction. In COREDO’s practice COREDO SPVs are often used to isolate risks for individual projects, to raise financing secured by specific assets or to create a platform for venture investments.

PIF and ZPIF: differences and types of funds

In a PIF, unit holders acquire a share (unit) in the overall asset pool, and management is carried out based on rules of trust management (PDU). Open PIFs provide high liquidity — a unit can be sold at any time and the entry threshold is minimal. For long-term and complex investment strategies, a closed-end investment fund (ZPIF) becomes the optimal instrument.

A ZPIF is characterized by a fixed term, a limited number of unit holders and the ability to invest in less liquid assets, real estate, venture projects, private companies and non-publicly traded securities. The entry threshold into a ZPIF is usually higher, and the liquidity of investment units is limited: they can be realized only at the end of the fund’s term or on the secondary market.

ZISIF and other forms of investment funds

Such structures are widespread in Luxembourg, Cyprus, Estonia and the Czech Republic. They allow flexible asset management, the use of mixed investment strategies and minimizing the tax burden through special regimes.

SPV or ZPIF: how to choose a structure?

ZPIF allows implementing complex investment strategies, integrating management of real estate, venture projects, and private companies. An SPV, on the other hand, is suitable for one-off transactions, securitization, managing individual assets, or time-limited projects.

In one of COREDO’s cases for an international development group a combined structure was implemented: an SPV was used to acquire and manage individual real estate properties, while a ZPIF was used to pool investments and distribute income among unitholders taking tax benefits into account.

Registration and support of an investment fund

The procedure for registering an investment fund varies significantly depending on the jurisdiction. In EU countries (for example, Luxembourg, Cyprus, Estonia) registering a fund requires approval of constitutional documents, trust management rules, engaging licensed management companies, a specialized depositary and a registrar of investment funds. In the United Kingdom there is an FCA licensing system, and in Singapore: MAS licences for management companies and funds.

Therefore, when registering an investment fund it is critically important to ensure the legal structuring of capital taking into account AML, KYC and the international standards of FATF.

Solutions implemented by the COREDO team in the Czech Republic and Estonia have shown: the integration of a professional depositary and an independent asset valuer minimizes risks and increases confidence from investors and regulators.

Asset management through ZPIF

Organizing asset management in a ZPIF requires a clearly structured governance framework: a management company, a specialized depository, a registrar, and an independent asset appraiser. Each element plays its role: the management company is responsible for the investment strategy, the depository for safekeeping and accounting of assets, the registrar for maintaining the unit-holders’ register, and the appraiser for regular valuation of assets.

A ZPIF allows investing in a wide range of assets: real estate as an asset, venture projects, private companies, and non-tradable securities. In COREDO’s practice, mixed investment funds are often implemented, combining several asset classes to diversify and increase the ROI of investments through a ZPIF.

How do closed-end unit investment funds (PIFs) work?

The entry threshold for a closed-end PIF is usually higher than for open-ended funds, which is due to the focus on qualified investors. Nevertheless, for certain strategies it is allowed to create a closed-end PIF for a single founder, which is in demand when structuring private capital or family offices.

Transfer of units to third parties is possible only with the consent of the management company or within the established rules. The fund’s term is fixed, but an extension of the closed-end PIF’s term or early liquidation of the closed-end PIF is possible upon the occurrence of certain conditions specified in the Trust Management Rules (PDU).

COREDO’s practice shows: well-drafted PDU allows avoiding most disputes and ensures the fund’s stability in the long term.

Tax optimization and investment protection through ZPIF

This allows structuring transactions through a ZPIF effectively, minimizing tax risks and providing legal protection for investments.

The COREDO team has repeatedly executed projects to structure transactions through ZPIFs for investments in private companies, real estate and venture projects.

Investment risks through a ZPIF are minimized thanks to asset diversification, independent valuation and strict oversight by the management company and regulators. An example from COREDO’s practice: for a fund investing in unlisted securities and startups, an internal compliance system and regular audits were established, which made it possible to attract institutional investors and reduce the cost of borrowed capital.

Key findings and recommendations for investors and entrepreneurs

• SPV – optimal for one-off transactions, securitization, and managing individual assets. ZPIF: a tool for long-term investments, trust management, tax optimization and capital protection.
• The choice of fund structure depends on investment goals, asset composition, liquidity requirements, investor makeup, and jurisdiction.
• Registering an investment fund requires careful legal packaging of capital, compliance with AML and KYC, and the engagement of professional management companies and a specialized depository.
• To minimize risks, it is important to develop rules of trust management, ensure regular asset valuation and operational transparency.
• When choosing a legal partner, pay attention to experience in international projects, knowledge of jurisdictional specifics, and the availability of comprehensive solutions for the registration, licensing, and support of investment funds.

In 2026 Lithuania found itself at the center of attention in the European crypto market: according to the European Commission, in just the last year the volume of crypto-asset transactions in the country grew by more than 120%. This is not just a statistic: it is a challenge for anyone building or scaling a crypto business in the EU. Why? Because from 2026 cryptocurrency regulation in Lithuania is changing radically: MiCA (Markets in Crypto-Assets) comes into force, and national rules are becoming stricter and more transparent than ever before.

Today entrepreneurs face not only the need to register a crypto company in Lithuania, but also new requirements for licensing, capital, AML and corporate governance. A mistake at any stage, and a business risks losing access to EU markets, facing sanctions or fines, and in the worst case – being excluded from the legal field.

Are you ready for these changes? How can you use the CASP transitional period not only to survive but to gain a competitive advantage? What steps will ensure the transparency and security of crypto-asset operations in Lithuania in 2026?

In this article I, Nikita Veremeev, founder of COREDO, share practical strategies and the experience of our team so that you not only understand the essence of the changes, but also get a step-by-step guide to adapting to the new rules. Read to the end; you will find not only answers to pressing questions, but also tools to grow your crypto business in the new regulatory reality.

Changes in crypto regulation in Lithuania 2026

The year 2026 became a point of no return for the crypto asset industry in Lithuania. The entry into force of MiCA in Lithuania and national amendments completely reshaped the approach to licensing, registration and supervision of crypto businesses. Key changes affected not only legal entities but all crypto asset service providers (CASP and VASP).

• MiCA in Lithuania: From 2026 all crypto assets and related services are regulated at the EU level under unified standards. This provides transparency, investor protection and a level playing field for all market participants.
• Transition period for CASP in Lithuania: Until 1 January 2026 there was a transitional period that allowed operating companies to adapt to the new requirements without the risk of an immediate shutdown.
• registration of a crypto company in Lithuania 2026: The registration procedure has become stricter – now not only legal formalization is required, but also compliance with new criteria on capital, corporate governance and internal AML policies.

Implementation of MiCA in Lithuania: what’s new?

MiCA is not just another regulation, but a fundamental market overhaul. The main provisions of MiCA that are now mandatory for Lithuania:

• MiCA requirements for crypto companies in Lithuania: Any company providing crypto asset services (CASP, VASP) is required to obtain a license for crypto activities in Lithuania through the national regulator – the Bank of Lithuania.
• Licensing of VASP in Lithuania: Service categories (exchange, custody, portfolio management, advisory) are clearly defined for the first time, and each has specific minimum capital requirements and internal control procedure requirements.
• Unification of rules across the EU: Thanks to MiCA, Lithuania becomes part of the single European market, which simplifies license passporting and entry into the markets of other EU and EEA countries.

Transition period for CASP and its significance

The CASP transition period in Lithuania: it was a unique window of opportunity that ended on 1 January 2026. During this period companies could continue operating under the old rules while bringing their processes into compliance with MiCA.

• How to prepare a crypto business for MiCA requirements in Lithuania: The solution developed at COREDO included an audit of internal policies, updating KYC procedures and implementing transaction monitoring systems.
• Consequences of the end of the transition period: From 2026, lack of a license or non-compliance with new requirements leads to immediate suspension of activities and the risk of large fines.

Crypto Business Licensing in Lithuania under MiCA

С 2026 года лицензия крипто Литва стала обязательным условием для всех, кто планирует оказывать криптоуслуги в Литве 2026 и выходить на рынки ЕС. Банк Литвы выступает единым окном для подачи заявок и осуществляет надзор за соответствием компаний новым стандартам.

• VASP licensing in Lithuania: The process has become digital, transparent and standardized. Now each application undergoes a comprehensive review for compliance with MiCA requirements and national legislation.
• Capital requirements for crypto business in Lithuania: Minimum capital ranges from €50,000 to €125,000 depending on the type of services provided. This is a tightening compared to previous rules.
• The role of the Bank of Lithuania in crypto regulation: The regulator not only issues licenses but also conducts regular supervision, including checks of corporate governance, internal controls and compliance.
• Passporting rights of the license in the EU: A Lithuanian CASP license grants the right to provide services in all EU and EEA countries without the need to obtain additional permits.

How to obtain a crypto license in Lithuania under MiCA?

COREDO’s practice shows that licensing success depends on thorough preparation and understanding of all stages of the process:

1. Document collection and assessment criteria: You must prepare the incorporation documents, a business plan, descriptions of internal AML policies, information about beneficiaries and the capital structure.
2. Electronic application submission: All documents are submitted through the Bank of Lithuania’s electronic “single window” system, which speeds up the process and minimizes bureaucracy.
3. Internal compliance and AML procedures: To obtain a license, it is mandatory to implement compliance standards, appoint a person responsible for AML and develop internal policies for client identification and transaction monitoring.

Capital and corporate governance requirements

MiCA and Lithuania’s national rules of 2026 have tightened capital and corporate governance requirements:

• Minimum capital thresholds: €50,000 for advisory services, €125,000 for custody of crypto assets and portfolio management.
• AML responsible manager: Mandatory appointment of a Lithuania-based resident with experience in AML/CFT.
• corporate governance: Implementation of an internal control system, regular audits, transparent ownership structure.

AML and Financial Crimes in Lithuania’s Crypto Sector

In 2026, Lithuania’s cryptocurrency AML regime reached a new level. The Anti-Money Laundering and Countering the Financing of Terrorism law (AML/CFT) has been integrated with MiCA, and supervision was strengthened by two bodies at once – the Bank of Lithuania and the Financial Crime Investigation Service of Lithuania (FCIS).

• Control of financial crimes in Lithuania’s crypto sector: the FCIS now has expanded powers to monitor operations, investigate suspicious transactions and impose fines.
• Internal AML policies for crypto companies in Lithuania: Every company is required to implement KYC procedures, transaction monitoring and risk assessments.
• The role of the Bank of Lithuania in crypto regulation: the regulator conducts regular inspections, requires reporting and confirmation of the effectiveness of internal AML policies.

Recommendations for AML and CFT Compliance

Effective AML and CFT compliance is not only a legal requirement but also the foundation of trust for customers and partners.

• Organizing KYC and transaction monitoring: Implement multi-level customer identification and regular verification of sources of funds.
• Risk assessment and reporting systems: Use automated tools to analyze transactions and submit timely reports to the FCIS and the Bank of Lithuania.
• Liability for non-compliance: Fines for violating AML standards can reach hundreds of thousands of euros, and in cases of systematic violations license revocation and criminal prosecution are possible.

Crypto business in Lithuania and the EU: new rules

The implementation of MiCA in Lithuania and the national changes has become a catalyst for scaling crypto business in the EU and increasing the sector’s investment attractiveness.

• Scaling crypto business in the EU: a CASP license obtained in Lithuania opens access to EU markets and the EEA, simplifying expansion into new jurisdictions.
• Risks and opportunities: strict capital and compliance requirements raise the barrier to entry but at the same time protect the market from bad actors.
• Comparison of crypto regulation in the EU and Asia: the European approach (MiCA) emphasizes transparency, investor protection and integration with banking infrastructure, while in some Asian countries regulation is less harmonized.
• Impact of MiCA on Lithuania’s crypto ecosystem: the new rules help form a resilient ecosystem, attract institutional investors and foster innovation.
