Power of attorney

Power of attorney
Power of attorney is a legal authority through which one person (the granter), gives another person (the attorney or representative) authority to act on their behalf. For more information including details of how to register, see the Power of attorney page.

Managing power of attorney accounts online
If you already have power of attorney and would like to be able to manage your granter's accounts online, or open new accounts on their behalf, you'll need to visit your local branch.

You'll be required to present your power of attorney document and provide suitable identification to confirm your name and address.

The power of attorney document must grant you full authority to deal with all of your granter's banking affairs, not just specific accounts, for you to be able to manage your granter's accounts online.

This online registration will be completely separate to any online access you may have for your own personal accounts online, and will have separate sign-in details.
