EL MANDATARIO SE CONVIERTE EN PARTE CONTRACTUAL PARA FAVORECER AL TERCERO DE BUENA FE QUE CONFÍA EN LA APARIENCIA.

Abstract

Mandates are given in the interest of the mandator, although there is nothing to prevent a mandate from being conceived in the interest of someone else, specifically, the mandatary. Furthermore, mandates are generally used as a means of allowing the mandator to empower the mandatary to represent the mandator in one or more affairs; there, the mandatary acts in the name and interest of another person, so that the effects of the mandatary's acts fall upon the mandatary's principal. However, there is also such a thing as a simple mandate, where the mandatary acts in his or her own name and is the person who is directly bound vis-à-vis the person with whom the mandatary has made the contract.
