A Power of Attorney for Purchase of Shares is a legal document that authorizes an individual (the agent) to act on behalf of another person (the principal) to carry out the process of purchasing shares or stakes in a company, within the scope defined in the document. This power of attorney is certified by a notary to ensure its legal validity and recognition, and it includes specifying the geographic and time scope, as well as the powers granted to the agent.
A power of attorney for purchase of shares allows the principal to delegate authority to the agent for tasks related to purchasing shares, such as signing contracts, transferring ownership, and dealing with relevant entities, whether in public or private joint-stock companies, limited liability companies, or others.
