Document background
A Board Resolution Appointing Representative is a crucial corporate governance document used when a company needs to formally authorize an individual or entity to act on its behalf. Under Pakistani law, particularly the Companies Act 2017, such resolutions are required to establish clear lines of authority and representation. This document is typically used when companies need to delegate powers for specific purposes such as banking operations, legal proceedings, government dealings, or business negotiations. The resolution must be passed in a properly convened board meeting with required quorum and should clearly specify the scope of authority, duration, and any limitations on the representative's powers. It serves as evidence of the representative's authority when dealing with third parties and helps protect both the company's interests and those dealing with its representative.
