Supreme Court allows creditor to limit guarantor liability to main debt when co-guarantors were contractually restricted.

The Supreme Court of Finland allowed the creditor's claim to limit the guarantor's liability to the main debt amount. The creditor argued that since co-guarantors had contractually restricted their joint liability, the guarantor should similarly be bound only by the principal obligation. The court held that the guarantor's responsibility transforms to match the main debt when co-guarantors' rights are contractually limited, ensuring equitable treatment among parties.
