24According to the wording of Article 1(2)(b) of Directive 93/13, the concept of ‘consumer’ is defined as referring to ‘any natural person who, in the contracts covered by that directive, is acting for purposes which are not related to his trade, business or profession’. It follows from that provision that two cumulative conditions must be satisfied in order for a person to fall within the scope of that concept, namely that that person be a natural person and that he carries out his activity for non-professional purposes.
