English to French: Bank spreads General field: Bus/Financial Detailed field: Finance (general)
Source text - English • Icelandic bank CDS spreads have widened to unreasonably wide levels. The economy is more robust than the recent currency slide and negative press coverage suggest. Government accusations that hedge funds mounted "concerted speculative attacks" against Iceland may be overstated - but have mobilised opinion against the perceived threat.
• The three Icelandic banks have suffered repeated "rumours and sighs" alluding to imminent default - although we can't discern any event likely to trigger it. Their earnings don't feature significant sub-prime write-downs or exposure holes, and asset quality is generally good. They have diversified geographically and by business line. They face the same access to liquidity issues as many small financial institutions - but each bank has raised new private placement funding and have at least 12 months liquidity on hand. The major factor underlying weakness appears to be built by association of being Icelandic.
• The three banks benefit from very strongly vocalised support from government and central bank. We doubt default would be allowed.
• Icelandic bank spreads will remain more volatile than their peer group of European peripheral bank names because of the economy's small size, but they offer very attractive relative value.
• Landsbanki spreads consistently outperform relative to Kaupthing and Glibnir.
Translation - French • Les écarts de CDS des banques islandaises ont grimpé à des niveaux déraisonnablement élevés. L’économie est plus robuste que la baisse récente de la monnaie et davantage que ne le suggère la couverture médiatique négative. Les accusations du gouvernement annonçant que les fonds spéculatifs auraient monté des « attaques spéculatives concertées » contre l’Islande sont peut-être surestimées mais ont mobilisé l’opinion contre la menace perçue.
• Les trois banques islandaises ont souffert de « rumeurs et désilusions » répétées faisant allusion à une insolvabilité imminente, bien que nous ne puissions discerner aucun événement susceptible de la déclencher. Leurs revenus ne souffrent pas d’une dépréciation importante ou d’exposition élevées, et la qualité de leurs actifs est généralement bonne. Elles se sont diversifiées géographiquement et en termes de secteurs d’activité. Elles font face aux mêmes problèmes de liquidité que beaucoup des petites institutions financières, mais chaque banque a su créer de nouveaux fonds de placement privés et dispose d’au moins 12 mois de liquidités. Le facteur majeur sous-entendant leur fragilité semble être la culpabilité associée au fait d’être islandais.
• Les trois banques bénéficient d’un soutien politique très fort de la part du gouvernement et des banques centrales. Nous doutons qu'il y aie un risque d'insolvabilité.
• Les écarts des banques islandaises resteront plus volatiles que les grandes banques européennes en raison de la taille restreinte de l’économie, mais ils offrent une valeur relative très attractive.
• Les écarts Landsbanki surpassent toujours Kaupthing et Glibnir.

Source text - French PSA: le chinois Dongfeng, acteur majeur de l'automobile... française
Le conseil de surveillance de PSA Peugeot Citroën a validé ce dimanche l'entrée dans son capitale de Dongfeng. Il y a un mois, le deuxième constructeur automobile chinois avait lancé une coentreprise avec Renault.
Dongfeng est décidément un partenaire chinois essentiel pour l'automobile française. Selon le nouveau tour de table décidé par le conseil de surveillance de PSA ce dimanche, Dongfeng et l'Etat français devraient posséder 15% du capital du constructeur automobile français, la famille Peugeot perdant sa minorité de blocage. L'opération se ferait via une augmentation de capital de 3 milliards d'euros, destinée à aider le constructeur automobile à sortir de l'ornière. Pour la marque chinoise, il s'agit d'une nouvelle belle prise française après sa coentreprise signée avec Renault le 12 décembre dernier pour le marché chinois.
• Deuxième constructeur chinois...
Fondé en 1969, en pleine Révolution culturelle, Dongfeng --dont le nom signifie "Vent d'Est"-- est basé à Wuhan, grande métropole du centre du pays choisie par les autorités maoïstes pour mettre l'industrie chinoise à l'abri d'une éventuelle attaque venue de l'océan. Avec 3,08 millions de voitures vendus en 2012 (16% du marché), il s'agit du deuxième constructeur chinois, derrière son concurrent SAIC (Shanghai Automotive Industry Corporation). Le groupe est d'autant plus courtisé par ses homologues étrangers que, sur les onze premiers mois de 2013, les ventes de voitures en Chine ont grimpé de 13,5% sur un an, pour atteindre un total de 19,86 millions d'unités.
• ... aux multiples alliances
Là réside la grande particularité de Dongfeng. Ce dernier a, au cours des années, multiplié les alliances tous azimuts, bien plus qu'aucun autre de ses concurrents chinois. Alors que SAIC s'est allié de longue date avec l'allemand Volkswagen et l'américain General Motors, Dongfeng s'est imposé comme un partenaire de choix pour de nombreux autres constructeurs étrangers désireux de leur disputer le premier marché mondial, comme les japonais Nissan et Honda, le coréen Kia, ainsi qu'avec Yulong, le premier constructeur taïwanais. Dongfeng s'est par ailleurs allié au début de l'année 2013 avec le suédois AB Volvo, avec l'ambition affichée de propulser le nouvel ensemble au premier rang mondial des fabricants de poids lourds. Dongfeng Nissan, avec 773.000 voitures écoulées en 2012, se classe parmi les dix premières marques sur le marché chinois -ce qui n'est pas le cas des autre coentreprises crées par Dongfeng, probablement victimes de l'éclatement des activités du groupe.
Translation - English PSA: Chinese company Dongfeng, now a major player in the French automotive industry.
PSA Peugeot Citroën’s board has approved the sale of stakes in its company to Dongfeng this Sunday. Dongfeng, China’s second largest automobile manufacturer, also signed a deal with Renault one month ago.
Dongfeng is undoubtedly an essential Chinese partner for the French automotive industry. The outcome of PSA’s latest board meeting on Sunday concluded that the French Government should own a 15% stake in the company, with the Peugeot family losing its blocking minority. The deal will proceed with a capital increase of 3 billion euros, intended to help the vehicle manufacturer get out of its current rut. The deal marks another nice French catch for the Chinese brand, following its joint venture deal with Renault signed on 12th December to make vehicles for the Chinese market.
• China’s Second Largest Automobile Manufacturer…
Founded in 1969, in the midst of a cultural revolution, Dongfeng (whose name means “East Wind”) is based in Wuhan, a large city in Central China, chosen by Maoist authorities to place China’s industry away from potential ocean attacks. With 3.08 million cars sold in 2012 (16% of the market), Dongfeng is China’s second largest automobile manufacturer, behind its rival SAIC (Shanghai Automotive Industry Corporation). The group has enjoyed so many courtships with foreign counterparts that, in the first 11 months of 2013, sales of cars in China climbed by 13.5% over one year, to reach a total of 19.86 million units.
• …has Multiple Alliances
This is where Dongfeng’s particularity lies. Over the course of the years, it has multiplied its alliances here, there and everywhere, to a much greater extent than any of its other Chinese competitors. Whilst SAIC has a long-standing alliance with Germany’s Volkswagen and America’s General Motors, Dongfeng has placed itself as a partner of choice for many other foreign manufacturers keen to fight for a piece of the world’s largest market, including Japan’s Nissan and Honda, Korea’s Kia, and Yulong, Taiwan’s biggest automotive manufacturer. Dongfeng also partnered up with Sweden’s AB Volvo at the start of 2013, with the clear ambition of propelling the new partnership to world number one manufacturer of heavyweight vehicles. Dongfeng Nissan is among the top 10 makes in the Chinese market, with 773,000 cars sold in 2012 – this is not the case for other joint ventures undertaken by Dongfeng, which probably suffered from the division of the group’s activities.

Translation - Arabic نحرص دائمًا على تقديم أفضل خدمة للعملاء
العملاء دائمًا هم موضع اهتمامنا الرئيسي في عملنا، وتتمثل رسالتنا في توفير تجربة تسوُّق ممتعة ومُرضية لرواد متاجرنا. كما نجتهد في ذات الوقت للحفاظ على أعلى المعايير الممكنة في مجال خدمة العملاء والمهنية المستدامة. إننا نحرص دائمًا على تكريس قدر كبير من الجهد والموارد والوقت بغية توفير أفضل مستويات التدريب فيما يتعلق بخدمة العملاء. إذ يتمثل هدفنا الأساسي في ضمان قدرة موظفي الصف الأمامي على تقديم خدمة استثنائية وإظهار التزامنا بالرضا التام للعملاء في كل مرة.
خدمة 6 نجوم
لدينا موظفون يقدمون تجربة تسوق لا تنسى لعملائنا. فنحن نتبع إجراءات مُنظمة تتألف من ست خطوات، حيث نقوم بتدريب كل عضو في الفريق على آداب الخدمة المهنية، ذلك لضمان الرضا التام للمتسوقين – بداية من تحية الزائر ووصولاً إلى فهم احتياجاته وترشيح المنتجات الملائمة له.
مبادرات مُبتكرة
معروف عنَّا أننا "نبذل أقصى ما في وسعنا" لكي نتجاوز دائمًا توقعات عملائنا. ففي العام 2005، كانت متاجرنا في مناطق آسيا والمحيط الهادئ هي أول من ابتكرت "خدمة التجميع عند الوصول" المجانية التي أراحت سكان هونج كونج والمسافرين العائدين من الخارج من عناء حمل الأمتعة الثقيلة عند التسوق قبل رحيلهم.
فضلاً عن ذلك، تُعد العلاجات الصغيرة أيضًا التي نقدمها قبل الرحلات الجوية مثالاً آخر على روح الإبداع التي نستغلها في إمتاع المسافرين في هونج كونج. وقد استعان متجرنا للعطور والتجميل (Scent & Beauty) بشركة ذات علامة تجارية عالمية متخصصة في العناية بالبشرة لتقديم علاجات سبا مُنعشة ومُجددة للطاقة مدتها 15 دقيقة قبل الرحلات، إلى جانب التدليك اليدوي المُهدَّئ للرقبة والوجه.
ضمان الرضا
يمكن لروَّاد متاجرنا أن يثقوًا تمامًا في جودة المنتجات المعروضة، ذلك أن موظفينا سوف يسرهم استبدال أو تصليح أو قبول أي صنف مُرجع مع فاتورة سارية. ولضمان أقصى مستوى من الرضا لدى الجميع، توفر متاجرنا أيضًا ضمانات دولية على العديد من الإلكترونيات والمنتجات الرقمية.

Source text - French Livrets numériques
Accéder à la musique n’a jamais été aussi simple qu’aujourd’hui, et pourtant, certaines choses ont disparu. Il ne serait venu à personne l’idée de vous vendre un CD nu, sans pochette, sans track-list, sans livret ! C’est pourtant ce qui s’est passé à l’arrivée de la musique dématérialisée.
Chez Qobuz, nous nous sommes opposés à cette détérioration : les livrets ont survécu au passage du physique au numérique.
On oublie bien trop souvent la richesse des informations que ces livrets contiennent: photos inédites, textes insolites, paroles de chansons, biographies, éditoriaux, mises en contexte historiques… et même parfois le nom de la violoniste du 4e rang d’un orchestre symphonique !
Les livrets numériques sont accessibles dans toutes nos applications, consultables pendant l’écoute, même hors connexion.
Translation - English Digital Booklets
Although access to music has never been this easy, some things have disappeared. Nobody would have thought of selling you a naked CD, without a cover, a tracklist, and a booklet! Yet, this is exactly what’s happened with today’s dematerialized music. And this is why Qobuz steps in with booklets, which have survived this downward trend by evolving into digital versions.
One often forgets everything these booklets have to offer: novel photos, unique texts, lyrics, biographies, editorials, historical and contextual information… Even the name of that symphonic orchestra’s 4th-rank violinist!
Digital booklets are available in all our applications for you to read while listening to your favorite music, whether online or offline.
