The bearing assembly is for mounting a rotatable shaft of a pump, and comprises an inner ring and an outer ring and a plurality of rollable elements mounted between said inner and outer rings. The bearing assembly has a lubricant directing element extending radially outwards from an outer circumference of the inner ring. The lubricant directing element may comprise a sloped radial surface, at least a portion of the sloped radial surface facing an annular gap between the inner and outer rings, a radially inner portion of the sloped surface being closer to the rollable elements than a radially outer portion of the sloped surface.
