With effect from 1 January 2019, Bahraini Islamic bank licensees must use a common template (set out in Appendix PD-1) to report the breakdown of their regulatory capital when the transition period for the phasing-in of deductions ends. The template is designed to disclose all regulatory adjustments, including amounts falling below thresholds for deduction, and thus enhance consistency and comparability in the disclosure of the elements of capital between banks and across jurisdictions.
