   Reporter: Right. Tell me what had happened to Citibank. Not going all the way back-and I want to talk about risk management in a second—but why was the stock collapsing 1? And why did you feel it was necessary to say we need to do something about short selling?


  记者:是的。请跟我们说一下花旗集团的经历,不是所有的事情,我想要说一下有关于风险管理的问题,为什么股票会崩溃呢?为什么您认为有必要说,我们需要将其抛空呢?
  Vikram Pandit: There’s no doubt that a lot of banks have come into this market with assets 3 and securities that they wish they hadn’t had. These are loans,loans that they make. And in a tough market, they are challenge loans. And we knew that. We had those on our balance sheets. And we did everything we could to make sure we raised the right amount of capital. We raised a lot of it. We cut our cost structure correctly, and had a plan. We do have a plan to make sure that as we get out of these assets, the company starts making money. And our fear was that some of the issues- about Citi’s assets and asset 2 quality were being translated into people taking action on the stock. Not only some people who had stock they were selling, but particularly short sellers.
  潘迪特:无疑,有很多银行在打进市场时都带有很多资产和有价证券,而这并不是他们所希望有的,其中包括他们做出的借款。但是在一个充满困难的市场之中,他们这是在向借贷挑战。我们了解这个情况,我们的资产负债表中有借贷的记录,我们尽自己一切所能去确保我们增加适量的股本总额。我们筹集了很多资金我们现在正确地解除了我们的费用结构,并且我们有一个计划以保证当我们摆脱那些资产的时候,公司开始盈利。我们担心的一些问题是花旗的资产和资产质量会转化成一些人的股票,不仅仅是正在卖出股票的人们,还有那些抛空的人。
  Reporter: Or if you didn’t, what would happen?
  记者:如果您不那样做的话,可能会怎么样?
  Vikram Pandit: That’s anybody’s guess, and we’ll never find out. Because when you look at what happened over the weekend, everybody got ahead of it.
  潘迪特:这也是所有人的猜想,而我们永远都不知道会如何。因为从周末发生的事情来看,大家的想法都超前了。
  Reporter: And you lost in a week 50 percent of your value?
  记者:您在一周时间了损失了50%的价值,是吗?
  Vikram Pandit: We did indeed. The stock price went down about 50 percent in a week. And so, I think it was important, as we all talked, that we got ahead of this. And that’s really what happened over the weekend.
  潘迪特:确实是这样,股票价格在一周之内下跌了50%,因此我认为我们能够跨过这个门槛是很重要的,这也正是上周末发生的事情。
