Comunidad de Bienes
Without going into a great deal of detail, this is a form of business partnership, quite common among small businesses in Spain. My own business used to have this "corporate constitution" (we're now SLU - Sociedad Limitada Unipersonal")
Coincidentally in this case the people making up this business have chosen to use their names, but my own business had a title which didn't use surnames. "Avila Traductores CB" would be perfectly feasible!

Just realised that I only put a 4 - when translating a sentence instead of an individual term, this is what I normally put since there is always a different way of expressing things in that case, and no one right answer. But here there is one right answer only, so I should have put a 5!

Ah yes, and I should also have stressed that you should leave this as CB (or C.B.) since this is part of the name of the business, like plc or ltd. The full words were for your benefit!

contador bancario
Since this is Spanish to English, this comes to mind in a financial context....... really, it could be a multitude of things, but it's almost impossible to say with so little context
An example of this would be:
