client list Explanation: Nil ghits for "clients patrimoines", but can't think what else it could mean. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 14 mins (2008-08-31 09:33:34 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- The client list is an asset that the company would need to protect, hence "patrimoine". |

context? Explanation: What sort of customers are in the list? Are they a particular type of customer, big corporations, well-to-do families, etc., anything that might merit the name "heritage customers"? Are they government agencies, where the notion of "patrimoine national" might come in? Or might they me old, long-standing customers from years ago, in which case "legacy customers" (along the lines of legacy software) might work? |
