BT Shares Fall on reports of Write Down of NPfIT projects

BT shares fell four per cent on reports of a huge impending write down on the value of contracts at its Global Services arm and a potential further 10,000 job cuts.

The write-down is thought to relate to 15 of BT’s 17 biggest contracts, including millions on its work with the troubled £12.7bn NHS National Programme for IT (NPfIT).

BT operates the London region of NPfIT.
