历年考题分析 - 2011年考题
Suppose you are the management of Fuxing Securities(福星证券),write a memorandum to the British independent director to expound the motives of the acquisition of Ganglong Securities(港隆证券)so as to dispel the doubts brought up by him. (本小题14分,须用英文解答,用中文解答不得分。)
Solution:
Dear, sir
I am writing to you to demonstrate the motives of the acquisition of Ganglong Securities. And I have to say it is a beneficial acquisition for us.
First, due to the financial crisis, some securities companies are undervalued further, and even go bankrupt. So it is an appropriate time to acquire overseas securities company with an advantageous consideration.
Second, by acquiring the Hong Kong company, we can develop the Hong Kong market and then the European and American market. There is no doubt that we will increase our market share and enhance our international competitiveness.
Third, we can gain the advanced and mature electronic trading system and make our transactions efficient and effective so as to provide more satisfying services with our customers.
Fourth, the brokerage business which fluctuates with the external environment is the main source of our profit, and with the fierce competition of the business, there is a downward trend in the commissions, which will probably result in the decrease in the profit. Under such circumstances we can expand the sources of profit by acquiring Fuxing Securities to combat the downward trend in the commissions.
Overall, I strongly recommend that our company should acquire Fuxing Securities because it is a real bargain from different points of view.
Best Regards
Yours Sincerely

·本题要求写一个memo,向独立董事说明其收购港隆证券的动机。Memo这一文体,对格式要求不多,但要注意英文写作中开头和结尾的一些“套话”。如开头写出写作的对象“dear,sir”,结尾要写上祝福语(如:best regards)和落款(如:Yours sincerely, Yours faithfully等) 。
·我们在写作时要特别注意将自己的观点列成若干条,每个观点可以用表示顺序的过渡词如first,second,third,above all, then, next, finally 连接起来,体现出文章的逻辑性、层次性。在具体展开每一点的内容时,可以自己适当补充内容。
·本案例中提到“港隆证券于2000年已斥巨资建立了网上交易平台,是最早开发网上交易平台的香港本地证券公司之一。港隆证券网上交易平台成熟,是唯一一家与香港27家银行系统对接的网上交易平台”。这句话可以概括为收购的动机之一:可以获得先进、成熟的电子交易平台。接下来我们可以进行适当补充,如:收购后的好处是,通过这个平台可以使我们的交易更有效率,从而提高客户的满意度。
·那么把这几句话组织起来,用上英语连接词就可以成为一个小段落,即we can gain the advanced and mature electronic trading system and make our transactions efficient and effective so as to provide more satisfying services with our customers.
·在文章的第一段一般要说明写作目的“to demonstrate the motives of the acquisition of Ganglong Securities”,最后一段可以重新强调下写作目的:写这个 memo就是要告诉独立董事,我们的收购是正确的,是一个real bargain,做到首尾呼应。在应对综合阶段中与案例信息有密切关系的英文写作时,可以按照如下顺序进行:查找案例相关信息——概括、扩展信息——中文翻译成英文。
