List of banks in Lithuania

Policy framework
European banking supervision distinguishes between significant institutions and less significant institutions, with SI/LSI designations updated regularly by the European Central Bank. Significant institutions are directly supervised by the ECB using joint supervisory teams that involve the national competent authorities of individual participating countries. Less significant institutions are supervised by the relevant NCA on a day-to-day basis, under the supervisory oversight of the ECB. In Lithuania's case, the NCA is the Bank of Lithuania.Significant institutions
