enhancement/increases of production capacity Explanation: In the internet, the word 'ensanche' is associated with city expansion. To adapt that definition to a company, one should think about how a company expands. A company expands through increasing its production capacity. This makes possible adapting to new economic contexts in case of saturation capacity. |

Development Explanation: At first I thought that, as you say, it had more to do with land expansion, as in, the expansion of land. If that is the case (which I don't think it is unless previous paragraphs indicate it), the correct term would be "enlargement", just as Collins suggests: https://www.collinsdictionary.com/dictionary/spanish-english... Still, I have the feeling it is not a proper business term, but one that was borrowed from another field to express a financial idea. In that sense, the term "ensanchar" is more closely related to agronomy and refers to the act of expanding, as in gaining more space, with a small property that makes, in my opinion, the term "expansion" not optimal. This property does come from the financial area, you are not "expanding" because the paragraph is not talking about growing in that sense, but about having a reserve to use in the case of needing it in three specific contexts: the second and third one are financial terms, or at least, in this case, they are used that way. So, the first one also must be used that way, and in that sense, the best translation might be "development", since it talks about expanding, but in an economical context, where there is no physical space to expand. Collins put this as a synonym of "expansion" in an economic sense https://www.collinsdictionary.com/dictionary/english-thesaur... A quick search in Google Scholar also shows the term "development" used in a more active way than "expansion", where it is used more in a historical sense. It also shows it being used in the same context as the paragraph you have shown. Di Giorgio (1999), in the Journal of Banking & Finance even uses both terms directly Example sentence(s):
