What is Power of Attorney?

We understand that using our products and services can be tricky for some. This might be the case if someone is affected by a physical or cognitive disability, mental health problems, addiction, or low literacy, numeracy, language, or digital skill levels.

With a Power of Attorney document, our customers may designate a person or entity to act on their behalf in managing their financial affairs. The document must specify what powers are given to the agent (the designated person) and when exactly those powers are to take effect.

If you’re unsure of what actions you need to take, please contact us via one of the available channels below. We aim to provide you with the same level of support as we would our own customers.
