COMMISSION NOTICE Guidance on the interpretation and application of Council Directive 93/13/EEC on unfair terms in consumer contracts · European Union
(60) Case C-590/17 Pouvin Dijoux. The Court held that the notion of ‘consumer’ under Article 2(b) of the Directive covers the employee of an undertaking and his spouse, who conclude a loan contract with that undertaking, reserved, principally, to members of staff of that undertaking, with a view to financing the purchase of real estate for private purposes. The notion of ‘seller or supplier’ under Article 2(c) of the Directive covers such an undertaking, where it concludes such a loan contract in the context of its professional activity, even if granting loans does not constitute its main activity.
