Yes, if you operate a crowdfunding platform within the CBB framework. Bahrain has a dedicated Crowdfunding Platform Operators module covering regulated equity- and financing-based crowdfunding models.
The platform operator is regulated because it intermediates investment or financing between fundraisers and participants.
The exact permissions and conduct obligations depend on the crowdfunding structure, so distinguish equity, financing and donation-style models before applying the framework.
Regulator: Central Bank of Bahrain (CBB)
