English term or phrase: Britain has avoided the worst abuses

Though the FSA says that it is “monitoring the situation”, it has taken its cue from Mr Spitzer before on matters such as market-timing (a sin of mutual-fund managers) and investment banks' allocating of shares in hot initial public offerings to preferred clients. On both those counts, Britain has avoided the worst abuses (though there have been plenty of other financial-services scandals). The industry is cringing at the notion of the FSA demanding yet more information on top of the existing deluge of paperwork. But that might prove a small price to pay if the result is that it avoids the punishments facing American firms. The insurance industry's moment in the spotlight is far from over.
试译：
虽然FAS声称它“正在关注势态”，但之前在择时交易（共同基金经理的一个罪名）及投资银行在热门的首次公开发售中把股票配售给优选客户这类问题上的线索还是从斯皮策处得到的。在这两起罪名中，英国都避免了最严重的滥用？？？（不过金融服务界有众多其它丑闻）。保险业一想到FSA要求除了现行的文件披露规定外还要披露更多信息，就吓得瑟瑟发抖。但倘若结果是可以避免美国公司面临的那种惩罚，那么这可能只是很小的代价。保险业处在聚光灯下的日子远远没有到头。
