I can't get at the meaning of "Träger" in the following text dealing with labour policy and strategy, can anyone help?
Gleichzeitig ist hier zu berücksichtigen, daß die Bundesagentur für Arbeit und die Träger des SGB II bereits viele Maßnahmen anbieten, bzw. das SGB II und SGB III für verschiedene Personenkreise Regel- und Ermessensleistungen vorsieht.
Am I right in thinking that this is "bodies responsible"?

"Carrier(s)" is a mistranslation IMHO. Träger are organisations/entities/bodies providing services and/or financial assistance.

: Carrier bestimmt nicht. It's not a private insurance policy.

: However: how can you be a carrier OF a code? Change it to "under the Social Security Code" or "as provided for by", etc.

: "Carrier" is a literal mistranslation - what's meant here are providers (organisations/entities/bodies providing services and/or financial assistance under the Social Security Code II).

There are plenty of such sites if you enter "carrier under the social security act".
