English to Russian Bus/Financial Finance (general)
European banks have now suffered considerably more losses because of the credit crunch than their US rivals, even though the turmoil was first triggered by problems in the US subprime mortgage market.

Of the $387bn in credit losses that global banks have reported since the start of 2007, $200bn was suffered by European groups and $166bn by US banks, according to data from the Institute of International Finance, a Washington-based banking group.

Votes to reclassify question as PRO/non-PRO:

Non-PRO (1): Angelika Kuznetsova

When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.

How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:

An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)

A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).

Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.

When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.

* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.

после "млн/млрд" точка по правилам русского языка не ставится.

Из «Справочника издателя и автора» (Мильчин А. Э., Чельцова Л. К., 2004):
Один из видов сокращений – высекаемые слова. Это «слова, в которых высечены буквы и/или слоги, кроме начальных и конечных букв, а оставшиеся стянуты в сокращенное слово: м(ил)л(иа)рд; м(ил)л(ио)н» (п. 4.1.1). В конце таких сокращений (млн, млрд) точка не ставится.
