Es el título de una cláusula de un contrato de agente institorio, donce se expone que la compañía X es independiente de la compñía Y, que no es un agente ni un empleado ni representante de Y, y que X no tiene relación societaria con Y.
En español, el título de la cláusula es "Independencia".
Mi duda es si las dos opciones son correctas, o si existe alguna diferencia (sutil?) entre ambos términos.
Gracias!!
