NASSAU, November 20, 2020 \u2013 The Board of Directors of Bahamas First Holdings Limited (\u201cBFH\u201d) today announced that Mrs. Linda Goss has resigned as Director, effective November 18, 2020, in tandem with her pending retirement as Senior Vice President and Chief Actuary for Economical Mutual Insurance Company (\u201cEconomical\u201d) after 20 years of service.
