Over a distinguished 12-year tenure as the Head of the Estonian Financial Supervision Authority (2014–2026), he successfully steered the nation’s financial sector through periods of profound technological transformation, complex compliance challenges, and macroeconomic shifts. With his official mandate recently concluded, Kilvar brings an unvarnished, executive-level perspective to FutureLaw 2026. As a former top national regulator, his insights bridge the critical gap between theoretical policy and the practical realities of "regulating the regulators" in an era of rapid digital disruption. Before his leadership role at the FSA, Kilvar built extensive expertise in corporate and financial law, making him a uniquely grounded voice on how legal frameworks must adapt to secure the future of trust and innovation.
