diminution des actifs financiers


Explanation:
Je parlerais plutôt de 'diminution des actifs (ou du capital)'

Les banques essuient en général plusieurs années de pertes et une **forte diminution de leurs actifs** avant d'inscrire une perte au bilan

Example sentence(s):
  • La récession mondiale a provoqué l\'an dernier la première diminution des actifs sous gestion en près d\'une décennie, selon une étude du Boston Consulting
