(1) An absent person of full age whose abode is unknown is given a curator of absentees for their financial affairs to the extent that they need to be attended to. Such a curator in particular is to be appointed for the absent person also in those cases in which they have made arrangements by giving a mandate or a power of attorney but circumstances have arisen that give reason to revoke the mandate or the power of attorney.
(2) The same applies to an absentee whose abode is known but who is prevented from returning and attending to their financial affairs.
