German term
Beobachtung nach
German to English
Bus/Financial
Government / Politics
Sofern es einem Land nicht durch eine geschickte Politik gelänge, eine Depression im Vorfeld zu verhindern, ist XXXs Beobachtung nach der angloamerikanische Weg ein probates Mittel zur ihrer Überwindung.
Talking about the economic depression in Germany. XXX is an American business consultant.
I fail to see how a "Beobachtung" can be a "Mittel". Any ideas?

Is your problem the use of ‘nach’? When it follows the noun, it means ‘according to’.
“In XXX’s view, the Anglo-American route is an appropriate way of overcoming it”

... nach Beobachtung von XXX ist...
M. E. hat er also eine "Aussage" gemacht.
In würde aber schlicht sagen:
According to XXX (meaning according to XXX's statement/comment...)
Man könnte auch
As mentioned by XXX,
As XXX observed, mentioned, commented... verwenden.
Viel Erfolg!

In XX's considered view of.....
Considered view,observation. Obviously we are not talking rash judgements here so the adjective "considered "could be used.
