Abstract

Summary Contract in favour of a third party in Greek law. The article deals with the question of whether Greek law knew a contract in favour of a third party. For this purpose, inscriptions, literary sources and deeds from Greco-Roman Egypt are examined, which are presented in the literature as evidence for the existence of a contract in favour of a third party. The article comes to the conclusion that there is no reliable evidence for the existence of an entitling contract in favour of third parties in Greek law.
