CA-A.1.5

The CBB requires that conventional bank licensees maintain adequate capital, in accordance with the requirements of this Module, against their risks. In particular, all Bahraini conventional bank licensees are required to maintain capital adequacy ratios or CARs (both on a solo and a consolidated basis where applicable) above the minimum levels set out in Chapters CA-B and CA-2. Failure to remain above these ratios will result in enforcement and other measures as outlined in Section CA-1.2 and Module EN. The detailed methodology for calculating the CARs is set out in the instructions for the form PIR.
