Belize City, Belize, November 21, 2011 -- BCB Holdings Limited
(London - AIM - BCB; Trinidad and Tobago Stock Exchange - BCBTT;

Background
The demerger by BCB Holdings Limited of Waterloo Investment
Holdings Limited, which owns BCB Holdings Limited's former
non-Belizean businesses, became effective on October 26, 2011 (the
"Demerger"). The Demerger was the subject of a Circular to the
Company's shareholders dated October 19, 2011 (the "Circular") to
which reference should be made.
As a result of the Demerger, the Company's Financial Services
division now operates principally through Belize Bank Limited and
internationally through British Caribbean Bank International
Limited, both of which are based in Belize. Within Belize, Belize
Bank is the largest, full service commercial and retail banking
operation with a head office in Belize City and thirteen branches
extending into each of the six districts of Belize. The principal
operations of Belize Bank are commercial lending, consumer lending,
deposit-taking and related banking activities.
Waterloo Investment Holdings Limited is now the holding company
for the Company's non-Belizean businesses which comprise British
Caribbean Bank Limited, a portfolio of other assets (principally
loans in the Turks and Caicos Islands) and certain investments in
associated companies with interests in edible oil processing and
distribution operations and palm seed plantations principally in
Costa Rica.

of the Demerger, which became effective subsequent to that date,
namely October 26, 2011. The financial information included herein
is presented as required by the rules of AIM.
