Hi,
I'm currently translation a text on the effect of the financial crisis on the Spanish economy. This section of the text deals with the increase in credit linked to the property market.
I'm having difficulties with the first part of this sentence:
"La elevada absorción de crédito por parte de las actividades inmobiliarias contenida en las cifras anteriores guarda una estrecha relación con algunos de los desarrollos macroeconómicos más significativos de la última etapa de crecimiento, como son el aparente «exceso de sensibilidad» del crédito con respecto al PIB y el abultado déficit por cuenta corriente."
My attempt is:
"High credit absorption by property activities in the figures above maintain a close relationship with some of the most significant macroeconomic developments of the last period of growth..."
I'm OK with the second half, it's just the first part of the sentence that is causing problems for me.
Thanks in advance,
Darren

the real estate sector
My suggestion.
"Real estate/ property activities" does not sound well and is almost never used. "Property sector" is also not commonly used in reference to the mortgage crisi, the credit cruch, and the financial crisis worldwide that ensued. "Real estate sector" a term I have chosen, is commonly encountered in news accounts and articles on the subject, and a lot more Google hits to boot.
