歐洲銀行業CEO薪酬不及美國同行一半

European bank chiefs are being paid less than half as much as their US counterparts, aFTer average remuneration in Europe fell 6 per cent between 2010 and 2014, but grew 15 per cent in the US.

歐洲銀行業CEO目前的薪酬還不到美國同行的一半。此前的2010年至2014年期間，歐洲銀行業CEO的平均薪酬下滑了6%，而他們的美國同行上升了15%。

Last year, chief executives of the top nine internationally active European banks earned an average of 4.8m, including base pay, bonuses and long-term incentive awards, compared with the average 10m paid by the big five US banks.

去年，歐洲九大活躍於國際市場的銀行的首席執行官平均賺取了480萬英鎊的薪酬（包括基本工資、獎金和長期激勵機制的獎勵）。相比之下，美國五大銀行CEO的平均薪酬水平達到1000萬英鎊。

While European bank chiefs have lagged behind their American rivals for several years, the disparity is now more extreme, according to data compiled for the Financial Times by PwC.

根據普華永道(PwC)爲英國《金融時報》編制的數據，儘管歐洲銀行業CEO薪酬水平落後於其美國對手已有多年，但雙方的差距目前更爲極端。

This trend has developed as the global banking industry comes under pressure from tighter regulation, aggressive new competitors and low economic growth. The turmoil is examined in Beyond Banking, an FT series that starts today.

這一趨勢形成之際，全球銀行業正面臨監管收緊、新競爭者咄咄逼人以及經濟增長率較低的壓力。英國《金融時報》今日啓動的Beyond Banking系列報道，詳細審視了這種動盪的狀況。

European banks have been hit hardest, particularly in their investment banking arms. In the first half of this year, the top five US banks scooped more than a third of the global investment banking fee pool, according to Dealogic — double the 17 per cent taken by the five top-ranked European banks.

歐洲銀行受到最沉重的打擊，尤其是其投行部門。根據Dealogic的數據，今年上半年美國五大銀行獲取了全球投行業務費用收入的三分之一以上，兩倍於歐洲五大銀行17%的比例。

US banks, swiftly recapitalised after the 2008 crisis, have been expanding while their European counterparts have been distracted by management issues.

2008年金融危機之後，美國各銀行在迅速完成資產重組後一直在擴張，而歐洲各銀行則一直被管理方面的問題分散了精力。
