John Rynne
: Or just simply "the Principal", on the grounds that we already know it is a company. Just because they use it in Spanish doesn't mean it's necessary.

Robert Carter
: Agree with John, i.e., Principal, but the terms "mandate" and "mandatary" are mostly unhelpful translations of "mandato" and "mandatario". Better to use "agency"/"power of attorney" and "agent"/"attorney-in-fact"
