1. 货币政策

monetary policy

请看例句:

China has decided to maintain a prudent and neutral monetary policy in 2018 as the world's second largest economy strives to balance growth and risk prevention.

作为世界第二大经济体,我国努力平衡增长与风险防范之间的关系,决定在2018年继续实施稳健中性的货币政策。

18-20日,中央经济工作会议(the Central Economic Work Conference)在北京召开。会议确定,打好防范化解重大风险攻坚战,重点是防控金融风险(financial risk),要服务于供给侧结构性改革(supply-side structural reform)这条主线,促进形成金融和实体经济、金融和房地产、金融体系内部的良性循环(virtuous cycle),做好重点领域风险防范(risk prevention)和处置,坚决打击违法违规金融活动(illegal financial activities),加强薄弱环节(weak links)监管制度建设。

中央经济工作会议强调,稳健的货币政策要保持中性(prudent monetary policy should be kept neutral),管住货币供给总闸门(the floodgates of monetary supply should be controlled),保持货币信贷和社会融资规模合理增长(credit and social financing should see reasonable growth),保持人民币汇率在合理均衡水平上的基本稳定(the yuan's exchange rate will be kept basically stable at a reasonable and balanced level),促进多层次资本市场(multi-tiered capital market)健康发展,更好为实体经济服务(serve the real economy),守住不发生系统性金融风险(systemic financial risk)的底线。中央作出此番定调是因为我国面临着既要确保稳定的经济增长和流动性,同时也要避免金融风险的双重任务(China faces the dual task of ensuring stable economic growth and liquidity while averting financial risks)。

美国总统特朗普20日赢得其任内最大的胜利,共和党人推动通过了自20世纪80年代以来最彻底的税收改革。

共和党克服来自民主党方面的反对意见(steamroll opposition from Democrats),最终通过了税改议案(tax bill),为特朗普锁定了自1月就职(take office)以来的首个重大立法胜利(major legislative victory)。此次税改的核心内容是大幅降低企业税,其标准所得税率(headline income tax rate)将从35%降至21%,使美国与发达国家的税率平均水平相当(bring the US into line with the developed-world average)。

该议案还将大幅调降富裕阶层的税负(slash taxes for the wealthy),并给予该国中产阶级幅度不一的临时减税政策。特朗普表示,美国人民将自2月开始看到税改法案的成果(begin seeing the results of the tax bill in February),届时他们的税后收入调整将开始体现在工资单上(adjustments to their after-tax income started appearing in pay checks)。

共和党人表示,该议案是自1986年里根推行的改革以来最重大的税收改革(the most substantial tax overhaul since Ronald Reagan's reforms of 1986),此轮税改对于重振经济,以及对明年11月的中期选举中保住该党对国会的控制均至关重要(be vital to energizing the economy and crucial to their chances of keeping control of Congress in midterm elections next November)。
