A power of attorney (PoA) is a document that gives another person the legal authority to act on your behalf as per the terms mentioned in the document. In the case of a demat account, the PoA gives the online broker the legal authority to take certain decisions on your account.
For most people, the best option is to have a general durable power of attorney because it gives your agent broad powers that will remain in effect if you lose the ability to handle your own finances. An attorney can customize a general POA to limit powers even more?or add powers, Berkley says.
The POA cannot transfer the responsibility to another Agent at any time. The POA cannot make any legal or financial decisions after the death of the Principal, at which point the Executor of the Estate would take over. The POA cannot distribute inheritances or transfer assets after the death of the Principal.
Who Can I Name to Have Power of Attorney? You can technically name anybody to have POA, so long as it is done under your free will and you are mentally competent.1 It should be somebody trustworthy and capable, such as a spouse, close family member, or friend. You may also designate your lawyer to have a POA.
The three most common types of powers of attorney that delegate authority to an agent to handle your financial affairs are the following: General power of attorney. Limited power of attorney. Durable power of attorney.
