Abstract
People over 18 years are allowed to make their own financial transactions unless they are under financial receivership. Receivership is appointed by the court or made by an administrative decision to people with lack of mental capacity due to a health problem (i.e., brain diseases, brain injury, and development disorders). Before appointment of receivership the disease and the lack of capacity must be described in a medical certificate.
