Paraphrasing (10th paragraph)
Text
Indeed, few companies have faced up to the new reality by cutting staff, trimming offerings, or nixing expansion plans. Many fund execs still earn more than Wall Street tycoons: Mario J. Gabilli of Babelli Assent Management Inc. raked in $45.5 million in 2000, while Lawrence J. Lasser at Marsh & McLennan's Putnam Funds pulled in $35.2 million, including options and other cash payouts. The median portfolio manager will earn about $436 500 this year, 35% more than in 1 999, according to headhunter Russell Reynolds Associates. In fact, expenses will grow faster than revenues for the third straight year as a result of hefty paychecks: employee expenses account for 70% of operating outlays, says Capital Resource Advisors, a Chicago financial-services consultant. Overall operating margins, while still a heady 35%, are 1 6% less than two years ago. "Most big fund companies are hurting. Their talent is leaving. Combine that with complacency, and we're in for a remarkable transition like we've never seen before," says Christopher J. Acito, managing director of financial services for Barra Strategic Consulting Group.
The main idea of the paragraph
Even in the face of harsh reality, few fund companies are cutting staff, trimming offerings or nixing expansion plans. Many fund execs still earn more than Wall Street Tycoons. However, they are in for a huge change they have never experienced before.
甚至在面对严酷的现实面前，几乎没有几个基金公司裁减员工，减少上市的基金，或者停止扩张的计划；许多基金公司的经理挣得比华尔街的大亨都多。然而他们正处在一个史无前例的巨大变革时期。
