Future Bank B.S.C. (Arabic: بنك المستقبل) is a commercial bank that was based in Manama, Bahrain.[3] It started as a joint venture by Ahli United Bank and two Iranian state-owned banks, Bank Melli and Bank Saderat.[1]
Central Bank of Bahrain closed down the bank in 2016 after Bahrain cut diplomatic ties with Iran.[2] In 2017, Central Bank of the Islamic Republic of Iran licensed the bank to open a branch in Kish Island.[4]
