Since the onset of the financial crisis 2008, the sovereign debt crisis in western economies and the new financial regulation with Basel III coming up, the financial industry faces the challenge of reinventing itself. The ring-fence for Commercial and Investment Banking, and new economic and regulatory capital requirements will determine the kinds of products banks will be able to distribute. It will have a huge impact in the Investment Banking business, which will suffer tough regulation and supervisory procedures. At the same time, credit risk models will be reviewed because they have failed to predict the crisis of 2008. The current financial and economic crisis doesn’t have any precedent in the past.

Table 4 summarises descriptive statistics of RATE, the un-weighted (weighted) risk disclosure index (RDI) as well as SSB for all bank fiscal years, as well as for each of the eight firm years investigated, separately from 2006 to 2013. Table 4 shows a number of remarkable outcomes. First, it reports that there is a high amount of variation in ratings between banks. For instance, RATE ranges from a minimum of 1 (Default) to a maximum of 19 (AA- which mean very high credit quality) with the median RATE 14.12 (Good credit quality) that indicate most banks in MENA have good rating, but there has been a continuous decreases in ratings during 2008 and years after which reflects the impact of continues crises beginning with GFC in 2007 and credit crunch in 2010. For instance, the average banks ratings is 14.4, 14.29, 14.09, 13.77, 13.69 and 13.84 in 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011 and 2012, but RATE begin to increases in 2013 which indicates recovery in MENA banks from GFC crisis effects. Finally, there is evidence that the level of listed bank RATE before GFC is higher than during and after GFC.

It is inherently difficult to predict the timing and intensity of a systemic banking crisis. Therefore, informs our strictly ordinal definition of credit quality. It is not the absolute (cardinal) level of default risk that matters, but rather the rank-order of default risk among all banks. In order to reduce the cost of processing bank accounting information, banks’ public reporting requirements should be vastly enhanced to facilitate cheaper and better credit analysis. In most countries, bank regulators protect their privileged data access, and do not share crucial bank data publicly (or even with other bank regulators) in a narrow pursuit of their own agency power and to shield themselves from accountability. Future bank regulation therefore needs to create an entirely new information environment for external credit analysis. Better public information and more bank reporting is the best strategy to reduce the exorbitant influence of credit rating agencies in the current system.

The financial proportions are readied on the premise of recorded financial proclamations and they are helpful markers of a company 's present financial execution and current financial circumstance. These financial proportions can be utilised to dissect current patterns and to contrast the association 's financial position with those of others. The effect of financial proportions on the financial execution of Bahraini business and Islamic banks. The financial execution of banks was emphatically and absolutely affected by their operational proficiency, resource administration and their size.
