After pullingback from lending to Asia following the 1998 financial crisis, and then suffering more than adecade of deleveraging by their deflation-sapped customers at home, they can almost smellthe predicament of their European peers. Ken Takamiya of Nomura Securities says that inAustralia, for instance, the mega-banks lending has recently overtaken that of BNP Paribasand Socit Gnrale, two retreating French banks. It is the same story elsewhere in Asia, hethinks.

　　这不仅仅对亚洲输出国来说是好事，同时，也是日本银行业三巨头三菱日联金融集团、三井住友银行、瑞穗银行少有的一次大胆出击。自1998年金融危机之时三巨头停止像亚洲放贷，之后又连续遭受十几年通货紧缩国民减债的困境，他们几乎可以嗅到如今的欧洲同行的窘迫。野村证券的Kentakamiya表示，譬如在澳大利亚，日本大型银行的贷款近期已经超过了呈下滑趋势的两家法国银行法国巴黎银行和法国兴业银行。他认为，在亚洲其他地区也是如此。
