The study aimed to compare credit risk management processes between conventional and Islamic banks in Yemen. The results of the study were obtained through the financial analysis of credit risk in conventional and Islamic banks for the period 2009-2016, expressed in classified loans and provision for doubtful debts. The results of the study showed that Islamic banks are more sensitive to credit risks, the study recommend that the bank regularly identifies the risks individually and thus develops a strategy to confront these risks. The risks are identified regularly and effectively through a comprehensive risk management system through which all processes, tools, resources and responsibilities required to ensure effective risk management are identified. That each bank has an independent committee called the Risk Management Committee concerned with preparing the general policy or the competent department for risk management to implement the policies and monitor and measure risks periodically and establishing a specific system for measuring and controlling risks in each bank and determining the prudential ceilings for credit and liquidity. Using modern information systems to manage risks and set appropriate safety controls for them. The necessity of having an independent internal audit unit in banks that reports directly to the bank’s board of directors and reviews all of the bank’s business, including risk management.
