Proxy Authorisation Letter

"I need a Proxy Authorisation Letter that allows my business partner to represent me at all board meetings and sign routine business documents while I'm on sabbatical from March to September 2025."

Document background
The Proxy Authorisation Letter is commonly used when an individual or organization needs to delegate authority to another party to act on their behalf. This document, governed by English and Welsh law, provides a clear framework for the delegation of specific powers and responsibilities. It typically includes details of both parties, the scope of authority granted, duration of the authorization, and any limitations on the proxy's powers. The document is particularly important in corporate governance, financial transactions, and legal proceedings where direct participation isn't possible or practical.
