Director who is owed money ... (8)
I believe the answer is:
creditor
'director who is owed money' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'director who is owed money' is the wordplay.
'director' anagrams to 'CREDITOR'.
However, I am not clear how this is indicated.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for creditor that I've seen before include "one to whom money is due" , "to whom something is due" , "He should be paid" , "Person to whom money isowed" , "Moneylender" .)
