Question juridique clé
Whether mandate law applies to the mixed contractual relationship and supports accounting/disclosure duties
Solution extraite
The relationship was a mixed contract with a dominant commission/mandate element for the margin-call issues, so Art. 400 OR applies.
Motifs extraits
The credit arrangements were directly linked to the options transactions and margin calls; for accounting duties the commission-like elements prevailed, and Art. 425 Abs. 2 OR leads to mandate rules.
