| Streszczenie: | The Kingdom of Bahrain's Financial System Stability Assessment highlights banking supervision, insurance supervision, securities regulation, and antimoney laundering and combating the financing of terrorism.

Profitability surged in 2004-05, but historically, return on equity has been moderate for many institutions.

Consumer lending has grown rapidly, although it slowed in 2005 following a tightening of loan to income limits. |
