We consider more than one pair of SU(2){sub L} doublet Higgs supermultiplets in a generic supersymmetric extension of the standard model, and calculate their one-loop contributions to the soft mass insertions {delta}{sub LL} etc. We find that, if large supersymmetry breaking in this sector is realized, the loop effects can give rise to large contributions to the soft mass insertions, meaning that they can generate large flavor-changing neutral currents and CP violations. We apply our result to a recently proposed model based on the discrete Q{sub 6} family group, and calculate the nondiagonal matrix element M{sub 12} of the neutral meson systems. We focus our attention on the extra phases {phi}{sub d,s}{sup {Delta}}in B{sub d,s} mixing and flavor-specific CP asymmetries a{sub sl}{sup d,s} in neutral B decays and obtain values that can be about 1 order of magnitude larger than the standard model predictions. Our final results are comparable with the recent experimental observations at D0 and CDF, but they are still about a factor of 5 smaller than the recently measured dimuon asymmetry from D0.
