Intermediaries are intermediaries who report information opportunities or provide media contacts for clients to conduct civil legal acts with third parties. Intermediaries in the futures market refer to citizens, legal persons, futures companies or customers who are "entrusted by futures companies or customers" and "provide them with opportunities to conclude futures brokerage contracts or intermediary services". Futures companies or customers shall pay remuneration to intermediaries in accordance with the agreement.
Characteristics of the cost of living:
In an intermediary contract, the client has the obligation to pay remuneration only if the intermediary activities of the intermediary achieve the purpose. Whether the broker's activities can achieve the goal and whether the contract between the client and the third party can be promoted is uncertain and not entirely determined by the broker's will. Therefore, it is uncertain whether the payment obligation of the client must be fulfilled.
Sometimes, in order to facilitate the contract, although the broker has fulfilled the obligation to report to the client or the media, the contract has not been established after all, and the purpose of the intermediary contract has not been achieved. The broker still can't ask for remuneration, and the client has the right not to pay remuneration, because remuneration is the consideration of the broker's service results. If the contract is not concluded, no remuneration shall be required. This is the same as a contract in which the contractor can only ask for remuneration after completing the work.
