Many thanks LawLive.An Agency Agreement is important to set out the powers an agent has and any limitations on those powers. Provided the agent acts within the scope of its authority, the agent will bind the principal. If the principal holds the agent out to have authority, then even if there is a limitation in the agency agreement, the principal will still be bound. An Agency Agreement should also set out the remuneration of the agent, the specific tasks the agent will perform and the term or period of the agency.
