Legal validity of contract signing

Questioner

If the power of attorney arrangement states that the director has the authority to sign all contracts, but she has a contract signed by a manager, is this contract legally valid? Or should this also be included in the proxy regulation? I would like to know what should be done to make po signing legally possible.

Lawyer

To sign Po means: 'per order'. The signatory does this on behalf of the person authorised to sign. A proxy arrangement concerns the authority of someone other than the authorized director to sign a contract on behalf of the company (for example). Signing 'per order' does not have to be included in a proxy arrangement. This must be the case if there is a question of signing 'pp' (per proxy).

Questioner

Thank you for this answer, but I still do not know whether the contract is legally valid if it is signed by a manager on behalf of the director. Can you inform me about this?

Lawyer

Yes, that is a valid contract.
