The application process for a conventional bank license consists of two parts: Phase 1 and Phase 2. For Phase 1, applicants for a license must submit a duly completed Form 1 (Phase 1) (Application for a License), under cover of a letter signed by an authorized signatory of the applicant marked for the attention of the Director, Licensing and Policy Directorate. The application must be accompanied by the documents listed in Paragraph LR-3.1.5, unless otherwise directed by the BMA.
