The Missouri General (Financial) Power of Attorney offers a list of various powers (related to the principal’s assets & liabilities) that can be conveyed to another individual so that they can act as the primary party. The only thing that sets this document apart from your more traditional POA is the fact that it expires upon the principal’s disability/incapacity (not durable). Once accomplished, the appointed party will have the right to operate as the grantor in any capacity necessary to achieve the assigned tasks contained within the instrument. It is effectuated by filling in each field with the requested data and providing the necessary signatures (should be performed under the review of witnesses and/or a notary public).
