Jordan Daily – CFI Financial (Bahrain) B.S.C., a subsidiary of the CFI Financial Group, has received a Category 2 Investment Business Firm license from the Central Bank of Bahrain (CBB), the company said on Wednesday.
The license paves the way for the company’s official entry into Bahrain, further strengthening its footprint across the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) as part of a wider international growth strategy.
The move follows the group’s established operations in the United Arab Emirates and recent expansions into Oman and Kuwait. It also comes on the heels of CFI’s acquisition in Azerbaijan and the launch of its regulated entity in South Africa.
“This milestone marks an exciting new chapter for CFI as we expand into Bahrain, a key financial hub within the GCC and an integral part of our global strategy,” said Ziad Melhem, CEO of CFI Financial Group.
“We’re eager to offer Bahraini traders direct access to global markets, advanced tools, and a trading experience built on transparency, innovation, and long-term value,” he added. Melhem also thanked the CBB for its support and regulatory guidance.
The company said it remains focused on providing financial services that meet high standards of innovation, regulatory compliance, and client satisfaction.
CFI Financial Group operates across several markets, offering online trading and investment services.
