English term or phrase: P&L owner
This term is part of a list of vendor attributes. I have absolutely no context, and not the faintest idea what is meant by that. Profit & Loss owner? When I google it, it seems to be part of a job description, but I'd rather not take a guess.
I'd be grateful for an explanation and/or a German translation.

Thanks in advance!

German translation:Ergebnisverantwortlicher
Explanation:
Having looked at Google hits for "P&L owner" I think this may refer to a person with profit responsibility. Might even refer to a separate unit of a larger organization that holds this responsibility.

Hope this gets you on the right track.
