English term

on the basis that

English to Chinese Law/Patents Law (general) law
The Bank was unable to enforce credit derivative contracts on the basis that they constitute unenforceable insurance contracts entered into by an unlicensed insurer (the putative insurer may be either The Bank or its counterparty acting in the capacity of the credit protection provider).

请问:这句话该如何理解?尤其是“on the basis that ”是指因果关系吗?

对。有 because 的含义。
Eureka Yeung (asker) Apr 17, 2014:
Hi, David, 那么“ on the basis that” 实际上表示因果关系,对吗?

因为 (是一个理由)

unenforceble contract = (因有某些缺憾-如条文和合法性)不能强制执行的契约

On the basis = the justification for or reasoning behind something - Oxford Dictionary

银行(bank) 无法执行信用衍生工具的契约, 因为会因此构成无营业执照的承保人(保险公司)所訂立的保险合约成为不能强制执行的契约。

意思是银行本身是无营业执照的承保人 unlicenced insurer. (下半句 the putative insurer may be either the Bank...)

供参考。
Peer comment(s):

agree Oceanwide : “因为”后面的句子再调整下就好了:因这些合同由无执照保险人签订,属无强制执行效力的保险合同。

鉴于

鉴于这些合同由无执照保险人签订,属无强制执行效力的保险合同, 银行。。。
