CAMBRIDGE – The United States government is now permitting ten of America’s biggest banks to repay about $70 billion of the capital injected into them last fall. This decision followed the banks having passed the so-called “stress tests” of their financial viability, which the US Treasury demanded, and the success of some of them in raising the additional capital that the tests suggested they needed.
剑桥——美国政府同意，美国最大的银行中的10家可以逐步偿还去年秋天政府注资的700亿美元，原因是这些银行通过美国财政部要求的“压力测试”。压力测试的目的是检测银行的金融生存情况。根据测试的结果，另外一些银行则被允许在市场上融资。
