Except for clients with turnover exceeding BD 1 million per year, an insurance intermediary must draw the client's attention to the status of the insurance firm: i.e. whether or not the insurance firm is locally licensed (as a Bahraini insurance firm or overseas insurance firm) and, if not, the reasons for recommending or choosing that insurance firm. In respect of these clients, this advice must be delivered in writing.
