We prove that for every function $f\,:\,X\,\to \,Y$ , where
$X$ is a separable Banach space and
$Y$ is a Banach space with RNP, there exists a set
$A\,\in \,\overset{\sim }{\mathop{\mathcal{A}}}\,$
such that
$f$ is Gâteaux differentiable at all
$x\,\in \,S\left( f \right)\backslash A$, where
$S\left( f \right)$ is the set of points where
$f$ is pointwise-Lipschitz. This improves a result of Bongiorno. As a corollary, we obtain that every
$K$-monotone function on a separable Banach space is Hadamard differentiable outside of a set belonging to
$\tilde{C}\,;$ this improves a result due to Borwein and Wang. Another corollary is that if
$X$ is Asplund,
$f\,:\,X\,\to \,\mathbb{R}$ cone monotone,
$g\,:\,X\,\to \,\mathbb{R}$ continuous convex, then there exists a point in
$X$, where
$f$ is Hadamard differentiable and
$g$ is Fréchet differentiable.
