assigners
Those who allocate
Assigners are people or entities that assign—that is, transfer rights, designate tasks, or allocate resources.
The term appears most often in legal contexts, where an assigner transfers property or contractual rights to another party: The assigners retained no claim to the royalties after the transfer.
In everyday use, assigners might be teachers distributing homework or managers delegating responsibilities.
