Marconi has entered into talks with its lenders over extending its £4.5bn overdraft.

A syndicate of lenders, headed up by Barclays and HSBC and including Royal Bank of Scotland and JP Morgan Chase, is now in talks with Marconi, despite the ailing company denying last month it would ever seek such action, according to the Financial Times.
