- Buyer protection does not depend solely on the formal cap of the guarantee.
- Case law continues to favour effective protection of the purchaser.
- This is highly relevant in banking and consumer claims.
If your matter is close to the situation examined in this decision, it is worth reviewing the facts, the available documentation and the applicable case law in detail before taking any further step.
