Markets/en/Portal:Professional/Signature:Professional
馃挕 In simple words: A signature is how you say 'I agree' to a deal. This page explains who signs papers, when they sign, and how we keep proof they signed.
馃幆 In 20 seconds (scientific summary): This emerging framework addresses signature governance within professional market contracts. We are heading towards defining authorization sequences, evidence retention mechanisms, and electronic signature compliance levels. The hypothesis proposes that WikiDeal will either develop proprietary signing infrastructure or integrate existing solutions, with implementation direction informed by open research calls and stakeholder feedback.
This is a draft page, under construction. Status: initial hypothesis, proposed as a base for discussion. It is intended to host the signature section of the Professional portal. This element of the portal structure is explained on the Portal Structure Model page (section "11. Signature").
Professional: signature management
Under construction. This page covers how signatures are managed for the contracts of this portal: who signs, in which order, what proof of signature is kept, and the place of electronic signature.
Signature process
To be defined: who signs, in which order, and what proof of signature is kept.
Electronic signature
To be defined: which signature levels would apply.
Open questions
Whether WikiDeal would offer an online signature tool of its own or rely on existing tools is an open question, intended to be handled through the open call on contract signature.
