LR-1.2.22

Since the Islamic wholesale bank regime represents an easing of the restrictions on on-shore business that previously applied to offshore bank licensees (i.e. OBUs and IBLs), there should be few transactions of the type specified in Rule LR-1.2.21 — they are likely to exist only where individual ad-hoc exemptions may have been previously granted by CBB, and these exemptions went further than those now being applied across the Board to all Islamic wholesale bank licensees.
