Bankers will certainly regard the outcome as what in England we like to call a “curate’s egg” (served a rotten egg by his bishop, a young clergyman, when asked whether the egg was to his liking, replied that it was “good in parts”). They will choke on the commission’s recommendation of a new criminal offense for reckless conduct that leads to taxpayer bailouts, reinforced by a new “senior persons” regime that would ascribe all bank functions to a specific individual, who would be held personally liable when things go wrong.
银行家们必将对这个成果视为英格兰人所谓“牧师的鸡蛋”（一位年轻牧师与主教共进早餐但发现端上来的鸡蛋臭了，面对上级的亲切询问而又不敢得罪，牧师无奈回答说这个鸡蛋“肯定有一部分还是好的”）。委员会提出增设一种新的罪名——所谓导致纳税人救助的贸然行为，该罪名同时又被新的“高级人员”管理体制所强化，它会将所有的银行功能归于一个特定的个人，一旦出了问题，他/她就要以个人身份承担责任。
