据《印度快报》报道称，汇丰银行昨天（本周一）表示，将以1英镑的价格收购陷入困境的硅谷银行的英国子公司，以挽救英国的科技初创企业的主要贷款机构。 “This acquisition makes excellent strategic sense for our business in the UK,” HSBC CEO Noel Quinn said in a statement. 汇丰银行首席执行长在一份声明中表示，“此次收购，对于我们在英国的业务具有很好的战略意义。” The move comes after U.S. authorities moved to shore up deposits and stem any wider fallout from the sudden collapse of its parent, tech start-up lender Silicon Valley Bank. 此次收购，是在美国政府采取行动支撑存款并阻止科技初创贷款机构硅谷银行突然倒闭带来的更为广泛影响之后做出的。 After the announcement was made, the Bank of England said Britain’s banking system was sound. 公告发布后，英国央行（英格兰银行）表示，英国的银行体系是可靠的。 “No other UK banks are directly, materially affected by these actions, or by the resolution of SVBUK’s U.S. parent bank. The wider UK banking system remains safe, sound, and well capitalised.” 英国央行称，“没有其他英国银行直接、实质性地受到这些行动或者英国硅谷银行的美国母公司决议的影响。更广泛的英国银行体系，仍然安全、可靠，并且资本充足。” SVB UK is ringfenced from the U.S. group, and HSBC said the assets and liabilities of the parent company were excluded from the transaction. 英国硅谷银行被限制性地保护在其美国的母公司之外。汇丰银行表示，英国硅谷银行的母公司的资产和负债被排除在本次交易之外。 The deal brings to an end frantic talks between the government, regulators, and prospective buyers for the UK business over the weekend. 本次交易，结束了英国的政府、监管机构和潜在买家在周末为英国硅谷银行业务所进行的紧张忙乱的谈判。 As of March 10, Silicon Valley Bank UK Limited had loans of around 5.5 billion pounds and deposits of around 6.7 billion pounds, HSBC said. 汇丰银行表示，截至3月10日，英国硅谷银行拥有约55亿英镑的贷款和约67亿英镑的存款。 SVB UK’s tangible equity is expected to be around 1.4 billion pounds, HSBC said. 汇丰银行称，英国硅谷银行的有形资产大约为11亿英镑。 The transaction completes immediately, the bank added. 汇丰银行表示，交易立即完成。 Unlike the United States, Britain has not announced broader liquidity measures for the banking system. 与美国不同，英国尚未宣布专门针对银行体系的更广泛的资产流动性措施。 1、subsidiary 子公司，附属公司 2、start-up 初创公司 3、sound 可靠的 4、resolution 决议 5、ringfence 限制性地保护 6、tangible 有形的，真实的，实际的 7、liquidity 资产流动性，资产变现能力 |
