Hai ragione, ci avevo pensato, poi avevo scelto semplicemente interessanti perché talvolta alcune frasi slogan inglesi o forse americane in italiano suonano eccessivamente enfatiche e culturalmente stonate! Ma è una mia sensazione e poi considerevoli, rilevanti ecc.... vanno molto bene in questo contesto.

Mi sembra che questo concetto di \"value for money\" in Inghilterra sia affermato da moltissimo tempo, addirittura si parlava di value for money quando mi compravo la pizza con molti \"topping\" tantissimi anni fa. Però in italiano non abbiamo mai creato il calco, come facciamo di solito, per cui ho pensato che per l\'orecchio italiano valore (in questo contesto) non è poi così importante (come invece lo è con \"valore aggiunto\" ecc....). Mah!

agree  Mariella Bonelli: penso che il senso sia questo, forse anche "rendita"
1 hr
  -> grazie, ho scelto il termine ritorno trattandosi di un investimento in un'azienda ( investor).
agree  Alberta Batticciotto
2 hrs
  -> thanks!
agree  Barbara Micheletto: però personalmente calcherei un po' di più il senso pos. di great (magari con considerevoli, rilevanti, consistenti, ecc.)
4 hrs
  -> grazie, vedi sopra
agree  esoft: absolutely, it's all about the return, only I would say "ritorni significativi" or even stronger adjective....there ain't much better than "great"!

reso grande valore


Explanation:
After some reflection, I still agree with "ritorni", however, depending on what type of investor they are focusing on.....
"valore" may be a better choice. Take for example Warren Buffet's philosophy of attracting investors. He looks for investors who want to buy value not necessarily quick return. Of course, value implies "return" but often the word "value" takes on a longer lasting meaning.....

after all \"return\" is one time....if you want something to yield again in needs to have value....

anyway good luck!

From one Antonella to another:
regarding the concept of \"valore\", I can only say that in Italy \"valore\" takes the same place as in English in the context of saying something like: \"investimento di grande valore\" meaning that you can keep it for the long term, that is really the distinction between \"valore\" and \"return\"
