Spanish term
cuentas globales [see context]
Spanish to English
Law/Patents
Marketing / Market Research
US English //Powerpoint presentation
The context is a slide in an internal PowerPoint presentation by a company to its sales/marketing reps. in which goals for the next three years are discussed. "Global accounts" makes no sense to me in this context. I tend to think that "global trends" fits nicely into the context, but I've never seen "cuenta" used in the sense of "trend". Here is the text that appears on the slide:
PREGUNTAS CLAVES?
--Como llegamos a los resultados deseados?
--Que necesitamos para llegar a la meta, in depender de cuentas globales?
Que nos sobra de lo cual podemos prescindir y usar ese dinero para las prioridades identificadas?

global accounts
I'd say it is "sin depender de...". So, it means what they need without those global accounts to reach their goal. What they'll do locally perhaps?

(regardless of) overall global figures
I think "cuentas" here could mean "figures".
Note from asker:
Your idea confirms my own sense of the meaning of the term. Thank you! |

without going to the wider organization for funding
the aim is for the reps to be self-funding in realizing their aims and not draw in cash from other parts of their organization.
