French term or phrase: garantir les conséquences
Hello,

Under the somewhat ambiguous heading ASSURANCE - RESPONSABILITÉ RECOURS
This expression is part of the following sentence:

Le LOCATAIRE PRINCIPAL fera **garantir les conséquences** de la responsabilité civile qu'il peut encourir en sa qualité de LOCATAIRE PRINCIPAL.

It continues like this:
Il assurera, en outre, la totalité de l'ensemble immobilier en valeur de
Idna
Local time: 07:08
English translation:obtain insurance for
Explanation:
The article is headed 'Assurance'.

'Garantie' in an insurance context means 'cover', and 'faire garantir' means obtain cover - 'faire' is not redundant as Mpoma implies.

The whole sentence is a very roundabout way of saying that the principal tenant will obtain third-party insurance.

agree  Mpoma: Yes, you're right: context is everything, and "assurance" removes any ambiguity. Actually I didn't say "faire" was redundant, but that it could be ignored.
3 mins
  -> Thanks! That's very gracious of you.
agree  Andrew Bramhall: Yep, 'cover'or ' take out';
4 hrs
  -> Or 'take', according to Daryo.
neutral  Daryo: Not so fast: "faire" introduces a nuance of meaning that can not be ignored - must be clarified / Until proven to the contrary, this wording would mean s.o. else has to take this insurance, and this party has only to make sure it's been done.

  -> No, someone else, an insurance company, has to provide the cover.

cover the consequences (by insurance or personal guarantee)


Explanation:
LOCATAIRE PRINCIPAL fera **garantir les conséquences** : the HEAD LESSEE / (shorter-term) TENANT shall cause ** the consequences to be covered (by insurance or guarantee vs. a Deed of Suretyship for debt)** of such thi-party / occupier's liability as he may incur in his / the latter's capacity of HEAD LESSEE / TENANT

Garantir is wider than insurance cover/age and could include a third-party bond. Better safe with a wide, literal translation than sorry.

Example sentence(s):
  • The Guarantee Fund has as its object payment of indemnities under the obligatory Third Party Liability Insurance of Motorists and Accident of Passengers

Peer comments on this answer (and responses from the answerer)
neutral  Mpoma: At first I thought along these lines, i.e. wider than just financial. But in practice there is only one way to "faire garantir": I think this is just a synonym, here at least, for "faire assurer".

neutral  AllegroTrans: The heading (vital clue) is "ASSURANCE" - surely that is the nub of this?

La responsabilité civile, définie par la loi aux articles 1240 et suivants du Code civil, crée l’obligation de réparer le dommage involontairement causé à autrui. Un contrat d’assurance responsabilité civile a pour objet de couvrir les conséquences financières de ces dommages. Une garantie responsabilité civile est généralement incluse dans les contrats « Multirisques habitation ».

Ainsi l'assureur n'est pas tenu de garantir les conséquences dommageables découlant d'une faute intentionnellement commise par l'assuré.

Standard home insurance policies cover your buildings and contents. However, they won't cover intentional damage caused by your tenants. No matter how ...
