BB HOLDINGS LIMITED ANNOUNCES INTENTION TO DELIST FROM NASDAQ

Belize City, Belize, March 17, 2006 - The Board of Directors of BB Holdings Limited (NASDAQ: BBHL, London: BBHL) (the “Company”) today announces that the Company has decided to cancel the listing of its shares on NASDAQ, with effect from May 12, 2006.

Following the completion of the demerger of OneSource Services Inc., the Company no longer has any business interests in the United States. In this context, the Company has now concluded that the minimal trading volume in the ordinary shares of the Company on NASDAQ, makes it uneconomical for the Company to retain a separate listing in the United States. The Company's listing on AIM will be unaffected.

The Company’s businesses currently comprise of the Financial Services division, principally the Belize Bank, together with its 24 percent equity interest in Numar. The Company’s strategy going forward includes an increasing focus on business investment opportunities in the Caribbean region and not just in Belize.
