2 Genuineness of consent
• Any consent to a business contract must be genuine, and lack of genuine consent can be the result of a mutual mistake of fact, fraud, duress. If one party, through the use of fraud or forced means or by taking advantage of the other party’s difficulties, leads the other party to conclude a business contract contrary to his true intentions, the party suffering from harm has the right to request that the court or an arbitration body alter the contract.
