Viatel agrees to buy AT&T's UK arm-FT
LONDON, March 1 (Reuters) - Global telecommunications provider Viatel Inc has agreed to buy the UK arm of long-distance telephone carrier AT&T in a deal thought to be worth up to $200 million, the Financial Times reported on Wednesday.

The deal would allow Viatel to extend its fibre-optic broadband network to a further 10,000 to 15,000 mainly business customers in 19 UK cities, the newspaper said.

It said the sale followed the launch last year of Concert, a 10 billion pound joint venture between AT&T and British Telecom Plc (quote from Yahoo! UK & Ireland: BT.L).

It was suggested that AT&T would be well advised to sell its UK subsidiary to pave the way for the venture's approval by European regulators, the Financial Times said.
