French term

materialisent

French to English Marketing Finance (general)
Les cartes et lecteurs permettant l’authentification de Y clients dans Z pays matérialisent un partenariat solide avec xxx qui s’est fondé sur une expertise très pointue dans le secteur bancaire et les transactions financières, ainsi que sur les concepts de one-stop-shop et de SPoC (Single Point of Contact).

I am hesitating as to what to put for "materialisent"... in this context.

Lucy Hill (asker) May 6, 2009:
Reflect ok good point
Emma Paulay May 6, 2009:
No objections, just a remark... I think the point of using "matérialiser" is that the cards provide tangible evidence of the partnership. It's not just words, they actually produced something together. "Reflect" doesn't really get that idea across.
Lucy Hill (asker) May 6, 2009:
I like "reflect" best... So many possibilities, thank you everyone... I had a bit of a mental block initially. Does anyone object if I close the question?
Jane RM May 6, 2009:
I like are proof of
Emma Paulay May 6, 2009:
Illustrate? Demonstrate? Are proof of?
Lucy Hill (asker) May 6, 2009:
manifestation I was thinking more along the lines of "are a manifestation of" but do not like this wording
