LR-A.1.8

Collectively, licensed providers of regulated banking services are called conventional bank licensees. Bahrain-incorporated conventional bank licensees are called Bahraini conventional bank licensees. Conventional bank licensees that are incorporated in an overseas jurisdiction and operate via a branch presence in the Kingdom of Bahrain are called overseas conventional bank licensees. The same naming convention applies to the two sub-categories of conventional bank license: thus, Bahraini conventional retail bank licensees and Bahraini conventional wholesale bank licensees are those incorporated in Bahrain, whilst overseas conventional retail bank licensees and overseas conventional wholesale bank licensees are those incorporated in an overseas jurisdiction and operating in Bahrain via a branch presence.
