English term

Liquidity

English to Chinese Bus/Financial Finance (general)
What has transpired since has been quite the opposite. Central banks have continued to embark on unprecedented monetary policy easing. Not only have we seen official cash rates dropped to zero in many of the developed world economies, we have seen significant rounds of quantitative easing by the U.S, the UK, Europe and Japan. This has served to pump enormous amounts of liquidity (effectively cash) into the markets with the aim of providing their respective economies with on-going stimulus to promote economic growth.

折现手段?由于括号里面有“现金”,我不能再翻译成现金了。

流动性(Liquidity )有三种用法或涵义,一是指整个宏观经济的流动性,指在经济体系中货币的投放量的多少。2007年全年一直到2008年8月的流动性过剩就是指有过多的货币投放量,这些多余的资金需要寻找投资出路,于是就有了投资/经济过热现象,以及通货膨胀危险。造成流动性过剩的根源来自于中国不断推升的贸易顺差,出口企业不断把收回的美元兑换给国家,国家就得不断向经济体系投放人民币,这就造成了流动性过剩的现象。

感觉都可以译成流动性。流动性增加导致住宅价格上涨,流动性刺激措施导致市场表现强劲,全球的流动性泛滥,提供市场急需的流动性。参考http://baike.baidu.com/view/194490.htm

Even looking outside of the investment markets, real assets such as housing also look expensive. Housing has also, indirectly, been the recipient of the liquidity boost and lower interest rates described earlier.

这里是“流动性刺激”吗?
Investment markets have performed strongly as a result of this liquidity stimulus and investor demand.
albertdeng (asker) Apr 27, 2015:
The world has been awash with liquidity. This money needed to find a home. With cash rates earning the investor 0% in many markets, investors went looking for yield. Firstly they looked for longer dated government bonds. This was then followed by investing in high-rated, then lower-rated corporate bonds.
albertdeng (asker) Apr 27, 2015:
文件里还有其它地方出现过这个词。
In 2008 the global financial crisis (GFC) threw financial markets into turmoil. Billions of dollars were wiped off global stock markets. Economies slowed abruptly. Unemployment in most countries rose. House prices in many of the world’s leading economies fell. As a result, banks came under pressure as borrowers struggled to meet their obligations. Governments and central banks were quick to act, shoring up the banking system, cutting interest rates aggressively and providing much needed liquidity.

向市场注入数量巨大的流动性(实际上是现金)

它们劲头十足地扩张资产负债表上的项目,从而向全球金融系统注入了数量巨大的流动性。

agree William Xie : 应该是流动性吧。量化宽松一词是由日本央行于2001年提出,是指央行刻意通过向银行体系注入超额资金,包括大量印钞或者买入政府、企业债券等让基准利率维持在零的途径,为经济体系创造新的流动性,以鼓励开支和借贷。

Thank you for your explanation.
agree Jiang Yu : On second thought, I think I agree with you. Asset in accounting sense should be something that generates income for an organisation in the future and thus does not apply in this context.

流动性资产

According to Investopedia.com, definition of liquidity is:

The degree to which an asset or security can be bought or sold in the market without affecting the asset's price. Liquidity is characterized by a high level of trading activity. Assets that can be easily bought or sold are known as liquid assets.

Liquid Asset
流动性资产
An asset, cash or otherwise, that can be converted into cash.
现金或可转换成现金的资产。
Peer comment(s):

neutral Jiang Yu : 资产应该是就特定公司而言的概念。这里的liquidity是泛指的,所以可能不加“资产”二字比较好。
