Ellex has appointed Counsel Anneli Krunks as the Head of the Fintech practice in Estonia.
Krunks has been with the firm since 2019 when she joined as a Senior Associate. She became a Counsel in 2025. Earlier, she was with Sorainen as an Associate between 2017 and 2019. Earlier still, she served as a Compliance Officer with Danske Bank between 2014 and 2017.
“The steady introduction of new regulations in the financial sector will continue through 2025 and beyond,” Krunks commented. “Financial sector technology is evolving at an incredibly fast pace. The past decade has brought new demands by the clients for financial service providers as well as to the understanding of what financial services are. Technological advancements lead to more specific rules, and high-quality legal advisors must have strong industry-specific expertise and an openness to change – essentially staying one step ahead of current regulations.”
