Spanish term

por encima de dos dígitos

Spanish to English Bus/Financial Finance (general) Interview transcript about a bank
This term appears in an interview transcript about a bank.

Here is the whole paragraph from which it is taken:

Nuestro nicho de mercado es familias empresarias y empresas familiares y ahí en lo que les ayudamos es en las tres patas fundamentales de su patrimonio:

la empresa, que ahí damos servicios financieros más convencionales, financiando, con líneas de crédito, de descuento, etcétera; la parte de gestión financiera, de sus ahorros, de la parte más líquida de su cartera, y ahí es donde, como le comentaba, pues hemos tenido unos resultados fantásticos o muy buenos en los últimos años, por encima de dos dígitos, y hacemos todo tipo de servicios a través de gestión de fondos, gestión discrecional de carteras, renta variable, renta fija, etc.; Y la tercera pata que es crítica, que te permite diferenciarte claramente del resto de los competidores es la pata de la diversificación.


I hope somebody can help!

Gracias

beyond two digits

Not above or more than because I think he means in excess of 10%, which you could also put if you want. In other words not three digits.

better than double digit ROI

Sounds improbable in the current climate!!!
Peer comment(s):

agree Altogringo : but I would say reaching/achieving a double digit ROI. Maybe splitting hairs but wouldn't better than double digit be triple digit? Now that would definitely be one helluva ROI these days. And highly suspect, to say the least.

Thanks Altogringo - I'd agree with you if we were speaking English, but I suspect this is written in Marketingspeak :-(

above / over 10%

As an option, taking the simplest, most direct route.
Already agreed with DLyons if you want to hold on to double digits.

well into double figures

If you want appropriate marketing speak. Otherwise, I quite agree with Altogringo, perhaps "in excess of 10%"
