You're speaking of business people AFAIK.

May I ask the native English speakers here to use as little jargon as
possible? This is meant as an international list and too much jargon
makes it too difficult for non-native speakers. Oh well, the fact,
that English is *the* global language - at least in the Western
countries - has many aspects. Sometimes I'm glad, that I'm not a
native speaker ;-) .

Sorry, I've seen "suits" used to describe businness people in 
english-language forums all over the Internet and I assumed everybody would 
understand what I ment.  I'll try to be more careful in the future.
