“魔鬼交易员”不过是赌徒

随着时间的推移，我的这位上司获得了越来越多的回报，日积月累下来，他果真变得非常的富有。在过去20年间的伦敦金融城里，他的情况并非个例。银行年复一年地给员工发奖金，实际上被自己的员工打劫了。私人股本公司已经将企业榨干，丝毫不顾及历史或社会反响。人们发明出新的、复杂的金融衍生品，目的是只让极少数交易员能够理解，并让天真的投资者买下来。不对称的回报违反了道德和伦理。

So when I read about the verdict handed down to Kweku Adoboli, who lost an extraordinary amount of money at UBSand was this week sentenced to seven years in jail, I was not surprised. Some people have wondered whether he can actually be blamed for the giant losses in the first place, working in an environment that must have seemed to him to be purely focused on making money at any cost, and where few people are ever fired or asked difficult questions when making large profits. To me, Adoboli comes across as a decent, hard-working person, little different from any of his colleagues. His defence seems to have been that he never wanted to hurt anyone but that his trades started going wrong and he was just trying to make the money back. Sounds genuine enough to me.

因此，当我看到奎库·阿多博利(Kweku Adoboli)的判决时，并不感到意外。阿多博利给瑞银(UBS)造成了巨大损失，结果被判处7年监禁。一些人怀疑他是否真的是巨额损失的罪魁祸首，毕竟他所处的工作环境似乎就要求他不惜代价地赚钱，也很少有人因为获得巨额盈利而被解雇或被问及难以回答的问题。我认为，阿多博利看上去是一个正派、工作努力的人，与他的同事没有什么不同。他的辩解似乎是，他从未想伤害任何人，但他的交易出了问题，他只是想要把钱赚回来。对我而言，这听起来足够真诚。
