How to choose a bank in Estonia?

There is a large choice between the local respected banks and cross-regional (Scandinavian) institutions. You have to choose a bank in accordance with plans. For example, an international bank can provide you with a high-trustful guarantee, but local banks are able to propose better percents for deposit accounts or business credits.

Another criterion is the presence of the bank in the country. If you have a real office in Estonia, it is better to choose a bank with the well-established ATM and department network.
