    • BC-3.1.2

      The CBB acknowledges that the nature of takaful and the operation of a takaful business are not entirely equivalent to and in some respects different from a conventional insurance business. The specific requirements set out in this Chapter aim not only to allow takaful firms to operate in Bahrain within the CBB's insurance regulatory regime on a basis consistent with conventional insurers but also to recognise some of the differences in takaful that are relevant to the way in which takaful business is carried on.

      The specific requirements in this Chapter are additional to Chapters BC-A to BC-2. The requirements in Chapters BC-A to BC-2 apply to takaful firms unless those requirements are specifically modified or waived by this Chapter.
