In a move emblematic of the growing divide between the wealthy elite and the average citizen, Šiaulių Bankas AB has, on 21 January 2025, expanded its control through the acquisition of its own shares. This action, although lawful under the Republic of Lithuania's securities legislation, exacerbates the concentration of economic power into the hands of a select few.
