English term or phrase: main street programs
Bonjour,

Je traduis un rapport sur "The end of negative rates" où figure cette expression. Pas de contexte malheureusement, énumération dans un tableau.
Je pense qu'il s'agit de "main street loan programs" : programmes de prêts pour les particuliers ?

Ligne précédente : securities held outright
Credit market programs
Ligne suivante : Total assets

Merci d'avance

programmes de prêts pour les petites entreprises


Explanation:
Main Street (rue principale) est une métaphore pour les petites entrepises

Main Street programs = Main Street LENDING programs. Ces programmes de financement furent renforcés par le gouvernement Biden et la banque centrale américaine (la Fed) pour faire face à la crise du Covid 19 en 2021.


Main Street is a colloquial term used by economists to refer collectively to America's independent small businesses. It gets its name from a common name for the principal commercial street of small towns across the country. In England, the equivalent term is High Street.

disagree  Samuel Clarisse: Exactement ma réponse... Certes, tout dépend de comment cela apparaît dans le texte mais il faudrait tout de même conserver la source (et expliquer entre parenthèses)

  -> Pourquoi ne pas l'avoir traduit ? DE plus, tu ne cites aucune reference des Etats Unis.
disagree  AllegroTrans: The English term is a specific name of a programme and needs to be treated as a proper noun, with leading capitals, and followed by an explanatory translation

  -> This is nonsense! Our job is to translate from English to French. I have given you all the info about what's happening in the country I am living in and you are telling that the guy standing across the Atlantic is more relevant than I am.

Reference: Main Street Programs

Reference information:
https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&url=https:/...
Main Street Programs aim to revitalize downtowns and commercial districts through preservation-based economic development and community revitalization. The "Main Street Project" was begun in 1977 with a pilot involving 3 towns: Galesburg, Illinois; Madison, Indiana; and Hot Springs, South Dakota.
While revitalization is challenging work, the Main Street program offers a road-map for locally-owned, locally-driven prosperity. Across the country, thousands of communities have used the Main Street Approach to transform their economies, leverage local leadership, and improve overall quality of life.
