A general power of appointment gives the holder, also known as the donee, the broad power to give away the decedent's property to whoever the holder determines. For example, if a holder of a power of appointment can give the property to anyone in the world, that is a general power of appointment.
The donor can either grant the donee a general power of appointment, where the donee has full discretion as to who the property should be divided among, or a special power of appointment where the list of potential beneficiaries is subject to a set of limitations.
