china daily 双语新闻：欧元区向银行业联盟迈出第一步
The EU needs fresh powers to wind up failing banks in a speedy push to the next phase of banking union after a landmark agreement on centralised supervision, according to Mario Draghi, president of the European Central Bank.
欧洲央行行长马里奥·德拉吉(Mario Draghi)表示，欧盟(EU)需要清盘倒闭银行的新权力，以便在达成中央监管这一标志性协议之后，向下一阶段的银行业联盟快速推进。
The hard-won agreement among eurozone finance ministers yesterday to appoint the ECB as the “single supervisory mechanism” was the first and easiest step in a banking union plan aimed at preventing a repeat of the financial contagion that dragged down banks and sovereigns in the crisis.
昨天欧元区各国财长达成来之不易的协议，将欧洲央行(ECB)任命为“单一监管机制”(SSM)，这是迈向银行业联盟计划的第一步和最简单的一步，旨在防止再次出现金融危机蔓延，拖垮银行和主权国家。
The next phase – agreeing on a common resolution authority to oversee the orderly winding down of insolvent lenders – is likely to be even more fraught as it implies taxpayers might have to pay for the mistakes of a bank in another country.
下一阶段——商定一个共同清算*，监督资不抵债银行的有序清盘——可能更加棘手，因为它意味着纳税人可能需要为别国银行的失误买单。
“A European resolution authority is an important complement to the SSM and it will likely be in place by the time the SSM takes up its responsibilities,” Mr Draghi told the Financial Times on the eve of the agreement. The bank expects to take a year to prepare itself to take over responsibility for supervising lenders with assets of more than �30bn.
在达成协议前夕，德拉吉告诉英国《金融时报》：“欧洲清算*是对SSM的一个重要补充，可能在SSM开始执行其职责时到位。”欧洲央行预计，它需要一年时间做好准备，以接手监管资产超过300亿欧元银行的职责。
Mr Draghi’s confidence that wind-up powers will be in place by early 2014 comes despite a Franco-German battle about the speed and scope of banking union, with Berlin urging less haste for fear of sharing the burden of losses from winding down a foreign bank.
德拉吉表示清盘权力将在2014年初到位之际，法国和德国正在争执银行业联盟的速度和规模，德国敦促放慢脚步，担心分担清算外国银行所带来的亏损负担。
The bailout authority was due to be discussed at a summit of EU leaders last night, which followed 24 hours of uncharacteristically rapid decision making by eurozone ministers.
欧元区各国财长在24小时期间一反常态地快速决策之后，昨晚欧盟领导人峰会计划对上述纾困机构进行商讨。
Hours after agreeing the framework for a new supervisor, finance ministers agreed to release a long-delayed �34.4bn payment to Greece.
在就一个新监管机构的框架达成协议的几小时后，财长们也同意向希腊支付拖延很久的344亿欧元救助资金。
