: How do you know XX is a he? We need the complete sentence and asker isn't listening // it certainly is relevant as we only have a snippet of a sentence and don't even know what asker's document is

sin más contexto diría que podría ser algo como "withhold/retain/deduct (from) the assets"
si va con "de", tiene que ser "from"
