Former Revolut Regulatory Compliance Manager Evelina Agota Vitkute has returned to private practice and joined Adon Legal as a Partner.

Specializing in regulatory matters, Vitkute has over 14 years of experience in the legal field. Before joining the firm, she was a Regulatory Compliance Manager at Revolut, between 2021 and 2022, and a Compliance Officer at Swedbank, from 2020 to 2021. She also spent over eight years at PwC Legal, first as a Senior Legal Consultant, from 2012 to 2014, and later as an Attorney-at-Law, from 2014 to 2020. Between 2008 and 2012 Vitkute was an Attorney-at-Law with TGS Baltic.

"Banking law, as well as the finance and fintech law sector, has been humming for the last few years," Adon Legal Managing Partner Donatas Sliora commented. "With tighter compliance regulations, more intense supervision of the Bank of Lithuania, and growing popularity of financial services provided via mobile apps and hybrid services, the demand for this kind of legal services has been growing approximately by 20% annually. We are very excited to welcome a team member with a phenomenal set of skills. Having experience as a compliance officer in two banks offers a unique perspective on setting-up compliance systems, working on regulatory audits, and dealing with other internal issues of large regulated institutions."
