wholesale off

English to Chinese Other Insurance
Can anyone please help me the phrase "wholesale off" in the sentence reading "Banks are natural counter-parties for wholesale off balance sheet transations and market-making activity". Indeed, I'm confused with the sentence as well. Please also help me with it.
Many thanks in advance.....

thanks Thanks for help, it's clear this time!

The phrase should be "off balance sheet" instead of "wholesale off".Wholesale is just a word on its own in this sentence.

批发/机构

这里的wholesale相对retail,是指面向公司/机构而不是个人(retail)的业务。

整句话是说,银行是表外交易和做市交易的最自然而然的对手方。

表外交易,简单地将就是不计入资产负债表的那些交易,比如商业银行为企业提供担保进行融资,但如果出了事,还是会进入表内。对商业银行而言,大多数中间业务都是表外业务。

做市是指在市场不活跃的情况下(比如卖价太高,而买价太低,从而无法形成交易),由大机构出面出价,缩小价差,从而使市场交易活跃起来。因为商业银行资本雄厚,信誉好,所以是做市商的很好人选。
