Law/Patents - Law (general)
Spanish term or phrase: ejercer todos los actos de una amplia y general administración
Estoy tradduciendo un poder general venezolano:

"Quedan por consiguiente mis apoderados investidos: Primero: De facultades administrativas, pudiendo efectuar pagos en mi nombre y cobrar cantidades de dinero o especies que me debieran por cualquier cosa, así como **ejercer todos los actos de una amplia y general administración**. Segundo: De facultades dispositivas, pudiendo comprar y vender bienes muebles e inmuebles, así como prestar dinero, permutar bienes, dar en pago o recibir en pago y, en general, enajenar y gravar toda clase de bienes..."

Muchas gracias por adelantado

English translation:broad and general administrative powers
Explanation:
Hi Yvonne! You can choose to reword the entire section for readability:
"First: with broad and general administrative powers, able to honor payments on my behalf and collect money or payment in kind owed to me for whatever reason."
Then again, if you'd rather leave it at the end: "...as well as broad and general administrative powers" will do.
The word actos is already implied.
Either way, that'll also depend on how you translated "Quedan por consiguiente mis apoderados investidos:"
Hope that helped!

(do all things and) perform all acts on a broad range of general administrative matters


Explanation:
I have avoided the double-up of 'doing any and all things *to do* with...' and can't find a UK or US precedent that quite fits

cf. Brooke's Notary, Sweet & Maxwell, section 8-19: 'to do all lawful acts and things whatsoever concerning all the principal's business and affairs of what nature or kind soever in the UK, and generally to act for him and on his behalf in all matters as *fully and amply* in all respects as he might or could do therein, were he personally present and had done the same'.

12-85: General UK Power of Attorney: '... to do any deeds, transfers, documents, acts and things as effectually as I myself could do if personally present...'

Example sentence(s):
  • USA: A "General" Power of Attorney gives the Attorney-in-Fact very broad powers to do almost every legal act that the Principal can do.
  • USA: General Power of Attorney. This gives someone the authority to act in a broad range of matters, such as buying and selling real estate and personal property, managing your banking and investments, operating a business, handling taxes and lawsuits....

agree  Robert Carter: "to exercise a full and general power of attorney for company management" seems to be the idea. A kind of composite of 2 of the 4 main POAs (management, property disposal, litigation/collections, and labour affairs) we have in Mexico.

  -> Thanks & gracias! Unable to nail the wording from my ENG Notarial Precedents, I had also been on the cusp of management, as in my example of 'managing your banking & investments' but thought admin. would be closer to the ST & 'widen out' the scope.
