What Orion Securities does

Orion Securities (UAB FMĮ "Orion Securities") is a Vilnius-based, privately-held Lithuanian investment bank founded in 1993 that delivers a full-service financial platform across five core divisions: Investment Banking (M&A advisory, corporate finance, capital raising), Capital Markets (equity and bond trading and distribution), Private Banking and Wealth Management (HNW advisory, succession planning, family office services), Securities Services (share and bond accounting for more than 450 Lithuanian companies), and Depositary Services for asset managers.

The company monetizes through professional services fees (M&A advisory, bond issue organization), transaction fees (securities trading), recurring mandates (securities accounting, depositary, wealth management AUM-based fees), and carried interest from its venture capital sub-brand Orion Ventures, established in 2021 as an employee fund. Distribution is hybrid: enterprise field sales handle corporate finance and capital markets deals, while a self-service investor portal (portal.orion.lt, launched April 2025) and online KYC onboarding serve retail clients. The product suite also includes the W Invest members' club for women investors, the KŪB Orion Growth closed-end fund, and a new Investment Account product launched January 2025 to exploit Lithuanian tax-incentivised savings legislation.

Orion operates from headquarters in Vilnius and a regional office in Kaunas, targeting Lithuanian enterprises, Baltic retail investors, and select international corporate finance mandates accessed through the Pandea Global M&A network. Sub-brands Orion Wealth, Orion Ventures, and W Invest operate under the unified Orion Securities brand, with the venture arm holding ~10 portfolio positions across AI, biotech, aerospace, EV charging, telecom (eSIM), and vertical farming as of late 2024.

Expansion highlights6 records

Others

• Practica Capital: Lithuanian venture capital fund with deep involvement in the local startup ecosystem. Comparable to Orion Ventures as a Baltic-focused VC player and a co-investment peer in the same deal flow that Orion's team sources through LitBan and CoInvest.
• Change Ventures: Baltic-focused early-stage venture capital fund backing startups across Lithuania, Latvia, and Estonia. Comparable to Orion Ventures as a regional VC competing for the same Lithuanian and Estonian startup deal flow.
• Iron Wolf Capital: Baltic venture capital firm investing in early-stage startups in Lithuania, Latvia, and Estonia. Comparable to Orion Ventures as a regional VC with similar ticket sizes and thematic exposure to deep tech and B2B software.

Broad incumbents

• SEB Bank (Baltic operations): Nordic universal bank with substantial Baltic operations spanning corporate banking, capital markets, and wealth management. Competes directly with Orion on Lithuanian bond distribution and M&A advisory but as a much larger, broader-portfolio incumbent rather than a focused boutique.
• Luminor Group: Baltic-focused universal bank formed from Nordea and DNB operations, active in Lithuanian corporate banking, capital markets, and advisory. Competes with Orion for mid-market corporate clients and bond mandates as a broader incumbent.
• Swedbank (Baltic operations): Major Nordic-Baltic bank providing corporate finance, capital markets, and private banking in Lithuania. Overlaps with Orion across IB and capital markets but with a significantly larger balance sheet and broader product set typical of a universal bank.

Direct peers

• LHV Group: Estonian-headquartered full-service financial group offering investment banking, brokerage, wealth management, and asset management to Baltic clients. Closest structural analogue to Orion's integrated service stack, operating in a neighbouring Baltic market with a comparable multi-product strategy.
• Suprema Securities: Lithuanian-headquartered securities brokerage offering trading, custody, and advisory services to local retail and institutional clients. Directly competes with Orion's capital markets, private banking, and securities services lines within the same Lithuanian market.
• Redgate Capital: Tallinn-based boutique M&A and corporate finance advisor focused on the Baltic mid-market. Closely comparable to Orion's corporate finance arm in terms of deal size focus, regional coverage, and advisory-only business model.

Regional players

• Walless (formerly Eversheds Sutherland Baltics): Baltic legal and corporate advisory firm with significant cross-border M&A and corporate finance capability across Lithuania, Latvia, and Estonia. Comparable to Orion as a regional mid-market advisory provider but rooted in legal services rather than pure-play IB.
