Document version: 2026-07-30.1<\/span>Effective: 30 July 2026<\/span>Platform: gmz.ge<\/span><\/div><\/header>\n
Scope notice:<\/strong>This document governs use of the GMZ platform. It does not replace a transaction-specific contract or professional advice in any jurisdiction.<\/span><\/div>\n
\n

1. Introduction record<\/h2>

The record should identify the introducer, introduced parties, date, channel, opportunity, transaction purpose and evidence that the recipient did not already have an active independent relationship.<\/p><\/section>\n

2. Protected scope<\/h2>

Protection should apply only to defined parties, affiliates where justified, assets, licences, products, countries or transactions. A schedule may be updated by written notice or acknowledgement.<\/p><\/section>\n

3. Fee trigger<\/h2>

Define whether the fee is triggered by signing, closing, payment receipt, shipment, licence transfer, capital funding, commercial production or another event. Partial and staged transactions should be addressed.<\/p><\/section>\n

4. Payment protection<\/h2>

State invoice timing, currency, taxes, bank route, payment deadline, late-payment treatment, evidence and audit rights. Payment should be made only to a verified account belonging to the lawful payee.<\/p><\/section>\n

5. Exclusions<\/h2>

Document demonstrable pre-existing relationships, publicly sourced opportunities, independently generated transactions or parties expressly excluded before introduction.<\/p><\/section>\n

6. No hidden commission<\/h2>

Where applicable law, fiduciary duties, public procurement rules or client contracts require disclosure or consent, fee arrangements must be transparent to the necessary parties.<\/p><\/section>\n

7. Written mandate priority<\/h2>

A transaction-specific signed mandate supersedes general platform references regarding the fee, protected parties, term, governing law and dispute mechanism.<\/p><\/section>\n <\/div>\n
