Recital (25)
Recitals 25 / 64
In order to protect natural persons, damage to any property owned by a natural person should be compensated for. Since property is increasingly used for both private and professional purposes, it is appropriate to provide for compensation for damage to such mixed-use property. In light of this Directive’s objective of protecting natural persons, property used exclusively for professional purposes should be excluded from its scope.
