promissory notes

基本解釋

Another option is for the IMF to issue its own promissory notes; it has the authority to do so but has never wielded it.
另外一個選擇是IMF自己發(fā)行本票；他擁有這個權(quán)利但從來沒用過。
These promissory notes, with no intrinsic value, forced people to deal with the concept of attestation—certifying that something is genuine.
沒有固定價值的期票迫使人們接受証據(jù)的概唸——証明某財物的真實性。
The capital it put into its banks is in the form of promissory notes, essentially IOUs. Much of the rest was issued recently and will not mature for a while.
資金是以期票的形式注入銀行（也就是借據(jù)），餘下的多數(shù)期票也已在最近發(fā)行，到期期限久遠(yuǎn)。

This is the argument for replacing the promissory notes with a very long-term bond.
