Law/Patents - Law: Contract(s) / Contrat d'agence commerciale
French term or phrase: univers contractuel
Dans un contrat d'agence commerciale :

"Le mandat confié à l'Agent s'exercera dans l’univers contractuel défini par les modalités suivantes
- Secteur géographique défini en Annexe 1
- Typologie clientèle défini en Annexe 2".

J'ai compris de quoi il s'agissait mais je ne pense pas que "contractual universe" retranscrive bien l'idée de "univers contractuel", je pensais à "contractual scope", qu'en pensez-vous ?

Merci
