(Reuters) - John Malone's cable company Liberty Global (>> Liberty Global PLC), which also owns Virgin Media, is evaluating a potential contribution of up to 500,000 pounds to a campaign to keep Britain in Europe.

The company is evaluating a contribution to the "Britain Stronger In Europe" campaign because of the "uncertain macroeconomic impact" that a UK exit from the EU could have on business and consumers, said Manuel Kohnstamm, chief corporate affairs officer at Liberty Global.

Citi (>> Citigroup Inc), Goldman Sachs (>> Goldman Sachs Group Inc), JPMorgan (>> JPMorgan Chase & Co.) and Morgan Stanley have already donated six-figure sums to the Britain Stronger in Europe campaign group, sources have said, as some of the world's biggest banks fear the impact on their UK operations of a British exit.

The campaign for Britain to leave the European Union saw its lead narrow slightly over the rival "In" campaign, according to a weekly online poll published by opinion poll firm ICM on Tuesday.

Most economists reckon leaving the EU would deal a blow to the British economy, with a hefty current account deficit - 7 percent of GDP in the last quarter of last year - leaving Britain vulnerable to any pull-back in investment flows.
