Have you ever seen a liner B/L signed as agent of the named carrier by the beneficiary of the credit (who is not part of the maritime world) ?

I have never seen such B/L in realtiy, but in my opinion it could be also possible that beneficiary signs a B/L as agent, as big company's could have a own department which is also responsible for third party transports.

Correct, and they do act as "disponent owner" being authorized to issue B/L
