The Baltic States – Lithuania, Latvia, and Estonia – are emerging from an economic downturn. According to the European Commission forecasts, the region is now entering a phase of moderate growth, with the key driver being a recovery in domestic demand. Against this backdrop, Baltic companies, whose shares are illiquid but which are stable in terms of fundamentals, can offer a risk premium in a segment that remains off large investors' radar and lacks broad analytical coverage. Marius Varneckas, head of Freedom24 in Lithuania, argues that this is creating attractive entry points for investors in 2026.
