由于担心欧元区崩溃、石油价格上涨和其他的潜在威胁,世界各地的公司都紧握高额现金。只要政府不决定对它们蓄意征税,那么巨额的现金储备会刺激全球经济的复苏。手握巨额现金的公司,必须开始担忧了。一方面政府和家庭对资金流动性越来越感到压力,另一方面英国和其他国家的大公司应该觉得相当的宽裕。汤姆森.路透的数据显示,英国FTSE100公司所拥有的现金和短期投资总计达1300亿英镑。 Companies in various parts of the world are holding high cash because of concerns over the collapse of the eurozone, rising oil prices and other potential threats. As long as the government does not decide to deliberately tax them, a huge cash reserve will stimulate the global economic recovery. Companies holding huge amounts of cash must begin to worry. On the one hand, governments and families are increasingly pressured by liquidity. On the other, large companies in Britain and other countries should feel rather generous. Thomson Reuters data show that the United Kingdom FTSE100 companies have cash and short-term investments totaling 130 billion pounds.
