DEAR POTENTIAL CLIENT When placing a translation assignment you want a professional who will provide accurate translation of content and an easily readable style with appropriate and consistent use of terminology. My standards for accepting and performing translation work are set out here to help you make an informed decision. 1. Responsible approach and accuracy of translation. I will only accept assignments when I am certain of my ability to provide an accurate translation. 2. Effective Chinese style. Your translated documents will read easily without awkward phrasing to distract from the content. 3. Correct and consistent use of terminology. Before any translation I study the terminology of the specific field and create a comprehensive terminology database. I am able to deliver a better translation into Chinese than a Chinese translator living abroad. Living in China I can easily contact any China-based specialist or terminologist. Reference materials cannot replace such "live" consultations. English-Chinese Source: After the first world war, the UK government went about setting up an investment fund focused on SMEs. A syndicate £10m was formed by a number of major banks, including the Bank of England. We set out to provide long term risk capital (growth capital) for UK SMEs where we bought up minority stakes in established businesses. William Piercy, an entrepreneur, later to become Lord Piercy, was selected to manage this operation and he invested £16m in the first year. By the 1960s we were a household name and had established a large UK regional network. 1967 First VC investment of £70 000 into Oxford Instruments. We formed our Oil & Gas team, which now has a team of over 100 members. With increased M&A activity and significant technological developments taking place, our business grew rapidly and by end of the decade we were making investments of £200m/yr. In 1984 we entered Europe setting up our first offices in France and Germany. The 80s was the decade for buyouts. Under the Thatcher government, many state owned enterprises became privatised. As businesses sold off their non performing/non core assets, Private Equity investors acquired these businesses and totally changed the shape of the industry, turning these businesses in to leading industry players. The 80s were also when we moved into the US to set up our VC business.
