When a person is authorized by the principal to transact all affairs in connection with a particular type of business or trade or to transact all business at a certain place, that person is a __________ agent.

Respuesta :

Answer:

General agent

Explanation:

A general agent is a person that the principal authorises to perform transactions in relation to a part business on a certain place.

A general agent can perform all acts in relation to a business that has been assigned by the principal. For example in real estate when an agent performs property management functions for his client he is acting as a general agent.

On the other hand a special agent is one that is employed by a principal to perform a specific task or job and his scope of responsibility is limited to that job function.
