Meanwhile, a political response by Washington to the UK government's supertax on bonuses looms.

同时，对于英国政府征收的奖金特别附加税，华盛顿方面也即将做出政治回应。

Large banks are concerned the UK " supertax " on bonuses could apply to employees who work frequently in the country but do not reside there , adding to the fiscal burden of groups with international operations .

大型银行担心，英国对奖金征收的"特别附加税"会适用于虽不在英国定居但经常在那里工作的员工，从而增加拥有国际业务的集团的财务负担。

France yesterday said it would follow Britain's lead in levying a supertax on bankers ' bonuses giving added momentum to global efforts to curb high levels of financial sector pay .

法国昨日表示，将效仿英国的做法，对银行家奖金征收附加税，这使遏制金融业高薪的全球努力加大了势头。

The upbeat analysis of the City's prospects comes in stark contrast to a crisis of confidence in recent months, exacerbated last month by the imposition of a 50 per cent supertax to be levied on bankers' bonus pools.

这一对伦敦金融城前景的乐观分析，与近几个月的信心危机形成鲜明对比mdash；mdash；上个月英国宣布要对银行家的奖金征收50%附加税，更是加剧了危机感。

The move, which follows last week's announcement from JPMorgan that its fourth-quarter compensation ratio fell from 37 per cent to 33 per cent and which coincides with an overhaul of pay at Citigroup, goes against the consensus view in the City of London that banks would absorb most of the controversial 50 per cent supertax.

此举完全出乎伦敦金融城的意料，金融城人士曾普遍认为，银行会消化掉备受争议的50%奖金附加税的大头。摩根大通上周宣布，其去年第四季度的薪酬支出占比从37%下降到33%。而在瑞信此举出台的同时，花旗集团也在对薪酬进行全面改革。

Bankers in the City of London reacted with fury to government plans to levy an immediate 50 per cent supertax on banks ' bonus pay outs , saying the move played into the hands of rival financial centres .

英国政府计划对银行发放的奖金即刻开征50%特别附加税，伦敦金融城的银行家对此作出了愤怒的回应，称此举将使其它金融中心坐收渔利。
