Word in Use

From: Wall Street Journal, 【WSJで学ぶ経済英語】第242回 永久債, 22 August 2016
  • 中国の不動産開発業界は投資家から高金利を求められており、国内の「シャドーバンキング(影の銀行)」システムへと向かう企業も見られる。不動産市場の健全性をめぐる警告で、危機感が増す一方となっている。恒大地産にとってこれ(シャドーバンキング借り入れ)は昨年の40億ドル永久債の発行に続くもので、このコストも同社の既存負債を大幅に上回った。
  • Investors are forcing Chinese property companies to pay more to borrow and driving some to the country’s “shadow-banking” system, as warnings over the health of the real-estate market grow more dire. For Evergrande, that followed the sale last year of a $4 billion perpetual bond that was far more costly than the company’s existing debt.

Notes

  • 帯無線通信 literal translation is band wireless communications.
帯 = band
無線 = wireless
通信 = communications
Within the English-speaking telecommunications industry, one merely says “band”. Hence, Fujitsu’s translation of “920 MHz 帯無線通信” is more often noted as the “920MHz band.”
