4、pursuing of one hundred years of the spirit of the low exposure in under global financial perspective, this is the Greek debt crisisMore and more public opinion in pointing at Goldman Sachs Greek debt crisis in the ignoble part in the Greek crisis at Goldman Sachs in the use of currency swaps and cr

5、edit default swap contracts two financial tools director the Greek crisisIn 2001, Greece joined the euro is worry, because according to the debt situation in Greece, Greece does not meet the requirements of the euro-zone members. According to the Maastricht Treaty signed in Europe in 1992, in order

6、to join the euro a country must be a member of the European Union and be able to pass economic tests set out by the Maastricht Treaty.- the budget deficit can not exceed 3% of the gross domestic product and debt ratio of less than 60% of the gross domestic product. But then Greece can not meet these

7、 two conditions.A named Antigone Loudiadis put forward a complex trading strategy behind the scenes, Goldman Sachs pushed to the front of the Greek government. Goldman Sachs is the Greek tailor-made to a currency swaps its cover up a sum of up to 1 billion public debt, to comply with the standards o

8、f euro area member states.Goldman Sachs enthusiastic help solve the problem is not without cost, according to EU officials recently disclosed facts, Goldman Sachs in 2001 for the Greek development of this complex arrangements, access to a massive $ 300 million in commissions.As the global economic c

9、risis, the Greek debt in ten years after the hidden or found. With the global financial crisis has led to increasingly difficult to finance, financing costs are increasingly expensive, the Greek debt chain can not continue, in early October 2009 the Greek government suddenly announced the 2009 gover

10、nment deficit and public debt as a percentage of gross domestic product ratio is expected to be respectively 12.7% and 113%, far exceeding the EU stability and growth pact provided for 3% and 60% limit.For a time, across the board collapse of the Greek debt chain, not only banks are affected, have s

11、imilar weaknesses sovereign debt all affected, and the Greek debt crisis shaking world financial markets.Goldman Sachs in the completion of the transaction with Greece, to a German bank to buy one billion euros in 20-year credit default swaps (CDS) insurance to spread risk, in order to make up the s

12、hortfall in debt payment problems from the underwriting side. Goldman Sachs really smart move, Germany is the largest economy in the euro area, Germany tied the debt chain in Greece, Goldman Sachs will be better able to avoid risks. If the Greek government payments crisis led to Goldman Sachs, the i

13、nvestment could not be recovered, then sell CDS, Deutsche Bank would have to pay Goldman Euro 1 billion shortfall.The problem is not just Goldman Sachs ahead of transfer of risk, Goldman Sachs has also used its insider position in the debt crisis in Greece, lets fund while shorting collateralized de

14、bt obligations, while the acquisition of cheap CDS, once the market reversal, collateralised debt prices fell sharply, CDS prices will be increased substantially, in order to reap huge profits. In other words, Goldman Sachs is by bad-mouthing Greeces ability to pay when the debt crisis in Greece, so

15、 Greeces borrowing costs rose.Goldman Sachs as a century-old U.S. investment bank, its profitability and ability to avoid risks the peer stare. Goldman Sachs profit status is second to none in the global financial institutions. 2000 to 2008, Goldman Sachs annual per capita to create profits $ 222,00

16、0; the strongest competitors in the JPMorgan Chase & Co. earlier figures of $ 133,000. Goldman Sachs employs about 30,000 people worldwide and in 2009 the per capita salary of about $ 700,000, while the remuneration of senior management of millions of dollars of dollars.The fact that Goldman Sachs p

17、rofit of 300 million U.S. dollars from more than 10 billion euros, with the Greek currency swaps, Goldman Sachs Group A Defense said, after Greece joined the euro area have been seeking to reduce the foreign currency debt, which is one of the EU member states conventional practices, transaction risk

18、 management procedures in line with EU regulations, there is no impropriety.According to The Wall Street Journal reported on April 3, 2010, Greeces current crisis has weakened the euro, and people are also worried about the debt levels of some other European countries. Experts say do not agree.The b

19、eginning of the China Construction Bank senior researcher Zhao Qingming said: This mixed sand view is unrealistic to underestimate the United States of magnanimous, European integration does not challenge the hegemony of the United States. Euro was born in 1999, the United States anxiety, fear of a

20、threat to U.S. dollars, but now 10 years later, the United States worried about did not happen. Greek debt crisis, Goldman Sachs is indeed responsibility, but Goldman Sachs, the behavior itself is difficult to determine an offense under the existing financial regulatory framework. Many analysts also

21、 pointed out the loopholes and shortcomings of the EU on its member countries debt problems of regulatory mechanism is one of the reasons Goldman Sachs and his ilk again succeeded.Been here this，The EU had also been fighting for Greece to join the euro zone to be completed as soon as possible on the

22、 political and economic integration in Europe. Therefore, Greece can not reach the Maastricht Treaty, the provisions of the two requirements, the European Union but also for its worried. Goldman Sachs shot help solve the poured sake awful good thing. In view of this, the European Union in fact, the

23、debt problems of Greece have perceived.Greeces debt problem is their own reasons, nothing to do with the global financial crisis. Causing Greeces debt crisis causes is an unreasonable arrangement of the Greek government, high welfare burden is too heavy as well as their economic structure, similar t

24、o the role played by Goldman Sachs packaging role of advertising companies, to postpone the debt problems of Greece exposure. Final settlement of the debt crisis in Greece is not that Goldman Sachs, or the Greek government itself to substantial reforms, including such as tax cuts, increase revenue,

25、followed by the euro-zone countries to help.In the long run, the European countries in order to resolve the debt problem, or to find points of economic growth. In addition to this short-term emergency financial rescue, the urge Member States to carry out economic reforms to correct the defects of th

26、e free market economic model, closer to the social market economy in order to fundamentally solve the problem. Different culture has different concept of time. In the North American culture, people have a strong sense of time. For Americans, time is money. On the contrary, in the Asian and Latin Ame

27、rican culture, concept of time is relatively weak as in their view time should be enjoyed. Edward Hall divided the concept of time into two categories: linear concept of time and circinate time concept. The former emphasizes on special time specified and speed, such as North American, Swiss, and Ger

28、mans; the latter stresses that one moment for tens of affairs as people take a loose schedule and delay of information feedback-Asian and Latin American have such characteristics. Trade negotiations also reflect the differences in time concept, which lead the styles and ways of negotiations of diffe

29、rent negotiators fickle. The United States is a typical example of linear concept of time. Americans have a strong sense of modern competition. They pursue speed and efficiency which created the vigorous and resolute commercial style of American businessmen. They will cut down the time of negotiatio

30、n as short as possible and quicken every part of the negotiation. For Americans,the measure of how a negotiating processes is to see how many small problems it solves. The Chinese concept of time is circinate. Chinese would use long-term vision and systematic methods to synthetically analyze and wei

31、gh the importance of a topic in a broad way. They hope to fully understand every aspect that the issues are involved in. Usually, what they focus on is how to get cooperation but not the length of the negotiation. Chinese also do not want to separate the negotiation into separate topics to discuss s

32、everally. On the Chinese side, discussing several issues the same time will be normal. They will not strictly comply with the agenda. Sometimes they may even reintroduce issues which Americans think they have been resolved. As China would normally expect to establish long-term corporation, they will

33、 spend a considerable amount of time to find out relevant information, dinner, entertaining and visiting, so the negotiations will be longer than what the Americans expected. People of different cultures have different cognitive models to the outside world, and the thinking modes must be different,

34、too, especially between East and West cultures. Western culture is characterized by logical thinking and analysis while the oriental is intuitively holistic thinking, a typical Chinese culture. Living in this culture, Chinese people attach great importance to things with intuitive feeling, which res

35、ult in cognition, perception and experience. And following this experience and feeling, Chinese people often measure another mans foot by ones own last. Such mode of thinking, which constitutes their core of knowledge and communication, has an obvious generality and vagueness. This thinking mode, in

36、 time, develops a mental set which can be interpreted as the process of perception and identification of things outside. In essence, the mental set is too generalized. We usually ignore the individual differences and exaggerate the cognitive addition of a social group. Frequently this set is emotion

37、ally accompanied by a fixed creed. It will ffect the cross-cultural communication directly and result in communication failure because our prediction of the behavior is based on a fixed view of their culture. Thinking Modes and Cross-cultural Communication Since the existence of differences between

38、Chinese and Western thinking modes, barriers in cross-cultural communication often occur. This involves not only spelling, grammar, vocabulary and so on but also pragmatic failure and cultural collision.Bibliography:经济参考报 北京商报 华尔街日报英语谚语警句100句精选Proverbs are the daughters of daily experience.谚语是日常经验的结
