русский term

демпинг по тарифам

русский => английский Бизнес/Финансы Страхование
«Многие литовские страховые компании оказались в сложном положении, что было обусловлено многократно возросшими лимитами ответственности по ОСАГО в результате вступления Литвы в Евросоюз и демпингом по тарифам.

The translator whose work I am editing has rendered this as "rates dumping." I know 'dumping' is a proper economic term, but "rates dumping" sounds like 'translationese' to me. I find no hits for it on Google (except where the two words are separated by a comma/full stop). Any suggestions?

Discussion

Kurt Porter Aug 11, 2005:
"highly competitive" is too euphamistic - One can have highly competitive rates without dumping one's rates.
Non-ProZ.com Aug 11, 2005:
Reply to Konstantin Yes, you are right, "tariff dumping" or "rates dumping" is tautology. But 'dumping' on its own seems strange. Perhaps "highly competitive (motor insurance) rates on the foreign market"?
Non-ProZ.com Aug 11, 2005:
Konstantin - the reference is to third-party motor insurance.

I'm sure "tariff dumping" is correct, but in context it sounds like an unnecessary use of jargon (but perhaps the speaker is to blame, not the translator).
Konstantin Kisin Aug 11, 2005:
The reason I ask, is because tariff dumping is something specific to the air travel industry. If the text is not concerned with this field then I don't think the term is any good for your purposes. Knowing what the tariffs in question are would help.
Konstantin Kisin Aug 11, 2005:
Clive, do you know what tariffs the text is referring to?

From Alexander\'s link:
New Law Stops Unemployment Insurance Rate Dumping

Federal law requires each state to meet minimum standards to prevent employers from manipulating their unemployment insurance experience rate through business reorganization. Illinois has been ahead of most states in this regard but PA 94-301/SB 411 brings us to full federal compliance. The bill was sponsored by Sen. James DeLeo (D-Chicago) and Rep. Hoffman and is effective January 1, 2006. http://www.ilga.gov/legislation/publicacts/fulltext.asp?Name...

tariff dumping

"..According to the unions, there is a real threat of social and tariff dumping since the labour market for scaffolding workers has become more and more "Europeanised"..."
http://www.eiro.eurofound.eu.int/1999/11/inbrief/de9911224n....

"..Lion Air have denied any wrongdoing citing that they had previously filed a "reference fare" with the Government on the subject routing of Rp. 275,000. Furthermore, Lion Air insists that its low-fare policy does not represent tariff dumping, claiming their operating cost per passenger on the route for a 167 passenger aircraft is Rp. 160,000..."

"..This has led to tariff dumping across the ports. While the marketing viewpoint is important, the tariffs should be based on the cost-recovery principle rather than a short-sighted business prospect..."

"..If very low tariffs are made possible through State aid by third countries, such cases of tariff dumping must be addressed in the context of the Community's external policy towards third countries in the aviation sector..."

dumping

Given you explanation I think simply dumping would suffice. The term dumping already includes lowering of rates, to put something like rates dumping would be to say "lowering of rates of rates". As I say, tariff dumping is a term specific to the air travel industry, particularly to "no-frills" airlines and their policies.

Clive, I am not sure that it\'s necessarily \"foreign market\". The sentence says that \"лимиты ответственности по ОСАГО\" grew as a result of Lithuania\'s EU entry but dumping could have been internal, i.e. excessive price (rate) competition on the domestic market. Excessive price/rate competition would be one way to put it, actually.

agree ruslingua : unless the rate is per target word

cutting rates or slashing rates

IMHO this sounds more like it ...
at least I believe this is exactly what the author was trying to say.
perhaps strengthen it with "dramatic"

i would say from my own esperience with russian economc writings that the term dumping is often mis-used.

hope that helps but i guess we all need broader context
