Re: jamrock@ ...and would be more effective writing it off on the tax records rather than materialising such huge almost 100% loss...
You describe this as mutually exclusive events whilst in order to write this off for HMRC tax purposes it may easily take 10 years until they include it into negligible value list or you will have to go via range of bureaucratic hurdles later on to dispose non-traded asset (for a penny, net of other associated costs), but selling it before stock gets suspended (therefore materializing loss) will tick this write-down within this tax-year (to offset other CGT gains, and it will be a bit easier to transfer this loss fully or partially for a next years).
