Italiano term

mandante/mandatario

Da Italiano a Inglese Legale/Brevetti Legale: Contratti Fiduciary contract
Mandante and mandatorio have many meanings depending on context and I'm not entirely sure which translations are more appropriate for the above terms in the following context. The inverted commas are present in the Italian text (have not been added in by me!) Many thanks in advance for you help.

Il "Mandante" autorizza la banca a pagare direttamente le fatture relative alle spese derivanti dal presente contratto che verrano inoltrate dal "Mandatario", e a corrispondere al "Mandatario" l'onorario e le spese di mandato derivanti dal presente contratto. Il "Mandante" si impegna ad informare immediatamente il "Mandatario" in caso di revoca di tale autorizzazione.

Ivana UK (asker) Sep 30, 2005:
This was the first page of a contract, however, I now note that the pages are in the wrong order. Page 1 is clearer: CONTRATTO DI LOCAZIONE (la signora e` residente all'estero e il mandatario assume per conto del mandante l'incarico di ricercare un inquilino)

... Studio XXX con sede in via XXX in seguito denominata per brevita` "Mandatario" e la signora XXX, in seguito denominata per brevita` "Mandante" ...

principal/agent

The passage included really isn't enough for me to be sure what the contract is all about, but this is often how the terms can be translated.

It does sound like a principal/agent relationship. The agent is seeking a renter on behalf of the principal, the woman who lives abroad.
