Hobson:What is meant by the term Clearing House Association ?
霍布森:票據(jù)交換是什么意思?
Banker:It's a voluntary association of the banks in the city which settles interbank debts .
職員:它是城市中各銀行自愿結(jié)合的組織,用來清理銀行之間互相欠款的問題。
During a business day we accept checks drawn on other banks and other banks accept checks drawn on us.
在營業(yè)期間,我們接受從其他銀行開來的支票,而其他的銀行也接受我的開出的支票,
We balance these interbank obligations through the clearing house .
我們通過票據(jù)交換所來平衡這些銀行之間的債務(wù)。
H:What about the actual checks that you get which are drawn on other banks?
霍布森:你們接受從其他銀行開出的支票的實際意義是什么呢?
B;Of course ,we must give these checks to drawee bank to collect the funds they owe us .
職員:當(dāng)然,我們必須把這些支票交給票據(jù)付款行,并且收回他們欠我們的資金。
And they give us checks drawn ourselves to collect the funds we owe them .
同樣,他們把我們開出的支票交還給我們,也收回我們欠他們的資金。
H:So the clearing house handles all this ?
職員:因此,票據(jù)交換所就是辦理這些事情的。
B:Yes,they separate all the checks according to drawee bank ,
職員:是的,他們按照票據(jù)付款行區(qū)分開所有的支票,
add the total each bank owes and deduct that from the balance maintained at the clearing house .
把每個銀行對其他行的欠款額加總,再從各銀行保留在標(biāo)據(jù)交換所的余額中減去其欠款總額。
And ,of course,they add to the balance the amount each bank is owed.
當(dāng)然,還要把其他銀行對這個銀行的欠款加到余額中去。
Then they deliver the actual checks to each drawee bank .
然后,票據(jù)交換所把這些實際的支票交給每個標(biāo)據(jù)付款行。
H:What about checks drawn on banks outside the city ?
霍布森:那么,從外地銀行開出的支票又如何處理呢?
B:The clearing house sends those checks to the Federal Reserve Bank's collection and clearing service .
職員:票據(jù)交換所把這些支票寄給聯(lián)邦儲蓄銀行的托收和票據(jù)交換業(yè)務(wù)部門,
That operates just like a local clearing house ,but deals with out-of-town or out-of-state banks .
這個部門的業(yè)務(wù)與地方票據(jù)交換所的業(yè)務(wù)性質(zhì)是一樣的,但是它是與處地或外州的銀行進(jìn)行業(yè)務(wù)往來。
So between the local and Federal Reserve clearing houses,checks drawn on any bank in the country can be easily processed .
因此,在地方和聯(lián)邦票據(jù)交換所之間,國內(nèi)任何銀行開出的支票都能很容易地得到處理。
