London is widely regarded as the world's financial capital
倫敦被廣泛地被公認為世界的金融首都

The chief executive of Switzerland's UBS bank Oswald Grubel says the United Kingdom threatens to undermine London's position as the leading financial center.
瑞士銀行的行政總裁奧斯瓦爾德格魯貝爾表示,英國威脅破壞倫敦的主要金融中心地位。

"The government is so quiet about [the future of London as the world's financial center]. Only behind closed doors do they pay lip service to wanting to keep the city. If it is abandoned by the government one day, God help you," the Financial Times quoted Grubel as saying on Tuesday.
“政府是那麼寂靜關於 [倫敦作為世界金融中心的未來],祇在關起門來在後面,他們支付口舌服務想保持城市。如果它在有一天被政府遺棄,上帝幫助你,”金融時報引述格魯貝爾星期二所說的。
In an open critique of the United Kingdom's government, Grubel said financial institutions need to be clear on the UK Coalition's approach to London in order to invest.
在一個英國政府的公開批評,格魯貝爾說金融機構在投資方面需清楚英國聯盟對倫敦的做法。
"Companies like us, who have 7,000 people in the City, have to make commitments, not from today to tomorrow, we have to make 15-year lease commitments. We would like to know where the City is going in the next few years," he said.
“像我們一樣的公司,有 7,000人在市中,要作出承諾,不是從今天到明天,我們要作出15年的租賃合同承諾。我們希望知道在未來幾年城市要往那裡走, “他說。
In contrast to the United States, the UK has taken on a tough regulatory approach to banking following the global economic crisis, which Grubel argues will make London less attractive to investors.
相較於美國,隨著全球經濟危機,英國對銀行業已採取嚴格的監管方式,格魯貝爾認為將使倫敦減少對投資者的吸引力。
Britain's largest bank, HSBC, has already threatened to relocate its headquarters out of London over the possibility of new banking regulations set forth by the country's Independent Commission on Banking.

The head of investment banking at HSBC said last September that other banking giants like Barclay's and Standard Chartered have felt threatened by new regulatory measures.
