Analysts say sell B&B
B&B mortgage bank - 55% buy-to-let, 22% sefl certified with no proof of income. Oh dear, not good for B&B shareholders.

It gets worse – the last press statement from B& B mentioned 50% BTL, this guy reckons it’s 59% and if the 22% self-certs (liar loans) are in addition to that, it suggests that just 19% of their mortgage book is sound.
It’s not far-fetched to contemplate the possibility of B & B seeing a 50% failure rate on their loans – totally unsurvivable.
FYI: B & B are roughly half the size of Northern Rock

Hardly suprising then that they talk the market up at any and every opportunity.

The Analysts have got it right. Especially after B&B recent statements that they were not planning to raise extra cash. Shareholders seem to have been given the run around.
