Bus/Financial - Finance (general)
English term or phrase: have geared
Terms and conditions of loan arrangements

Tax administrations need to take particular care to verify that the terms and conditions associated with obtaining of loan capital are those that an arms length party would have agreed to in the normal course of business. An arm’s length party is unlikely to have: -
- agreed to obtain debt at higher interest rates than it probably could have obtained on the open market.
- have geared a mining operation to the extent that it is largely unprofitable. Overall mining companies tend to gear at less than 1:1.

Merci pour votre aide.

disagree  Daryo: how would that meaning agree with "Overall mining companies tend to gear at less than 1:1." ??? // "1:1" sounds like some kind of ratio, if I'm not mistaken?

disagree  Daryo: it's that kind of "gearing", but the French version is not quite right // absolute values and proportions are not the same thing - elementary maths.

Les ratios d’endettement d’une entreprise

Il existe plusieurs types de ratios d’endettement. Pour rappel, un ratio est un rapport calculé entre deux données financières d’une entreprise (dettes, fonds propres, etc.). Il peut se traduire en pourcentage ou en coefficient.

Le ratio d’endettement le plus courant - celui que nous utiliserons dans les articles Oblis - est le taux d’endettement net, appelé le « Gearing ». Il mesure le niveau d’endettement d’une entreprise en fonction de ses capitaux propres (Dette Nette sur Capitaux Propres).
