Project Financing Return to top For major infrastructure investments, Bahrain's onshore and offshore banks have extensive experience with syndicated loans for larger risks. The Bahrain Development Bank (BDB) promotes industrial development in Bahrain. It also lends funds in some cases to local projects it considers appropriate, but funding is not limited to projects of Bahraini-owned companies. It is allocated on market terms and is available to foreign investors. Generally, credit terms are variable, but usually are limited to 10 years with a maximum grace period of 2 years.
