The margins a business head demands? (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

borders

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'the margins' is the definition.
(border is a kind of margin)

'a business head demands?' is the wordplay.
'a business head' becomes 'b' (I can't justify this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'demands?' becomes 'orders' (I've seen this before).
'b'+'orders'='BORDERS'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for borders that I've seen before include "Boundary lines" , "Perimeters" , "Decorative edges" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
