Consultation: Collective Investment Undertaking (CIU) Regulations

As part of the CBB’s objectives to enhance its regulatory framework, the CBB is hereby proposing to rationalize and simplify the CIU regulations in Volume 7 of the CBB Rulebook. In this respect, a single Module CIU (attached) will replace all the Modules included in Part A of the CBB Rulebook Volume 7. The revised proposed Glossary of Terms is also attached.

The application forms and other documentation in Part B of the CBB Rulebook Volume 7 will be amended in due course.

The proposed requirements will be available on the CBB website (www.cbb.gov.bh) under the “open consultations” section.

The CBB requests you to provide your comments on the proposed Module CIU and the Glossary of Terms, including ‘nil comments’, in an editable format to consultation@cbb.gov.bh by 17th February 2022.

Yours faithfully,

Rasheed M. Al-Maraj
Governor
