Examples from texts

A credit institution that barely satisfies the solvency requirement has no margin for growth unless it can attract fresh capital or increase its own capital and reserves by achieving a high rate of profit.
Ein Kreditinstitut, das der Solvenzanforderung nur knapp genügt, hat keine Wachstumsmarge mehr, solange es dem Institut nicht gelingt, neues Eigenkapital zu mobilisieren oder seine Eigenmittel durch beträchtliche Gewinne zu steigern.

Den andern Abend nach seiner Rückkehr waren Krespels Fenster ungewöhnlich erleuchtet, schon dies machte die Nachbarn aufmerksam, bald vernahm man aber die ganz wunderherrliche Stimme eines Frauenzimmers von einem Pianoforte begleitet.
