In the context of Articles of Association, is this an attorney, proxy or other?

Thank you.

Michael Korovkin Feb 1, 2009:
procuratori "attorney-in-fact" is tricky here: if you read on you see "attributions and powers", while a-i-f is bound by his/her position to certain duties that cannot be arbitrarily, pardon me, "dis-attributed". "procuratore" (see arch. 'procurator") is simply, pardon me again, a glorified "gofer". So, the best translation is "PROXY"

Another mention in the text: L'Amministratore Unico potra nominare *procuratori* e delegati per specifici atti o per categorie di atti, determinandone i poteri, con facolta di subdelega.

Thanks Arrigo I did even consider something more generic such as 'representative'?

deputy,representative

I think a more generic meaning is better in this context!

4 KudoZ points awarded for this answer. Comment: "Thank you all for your help. This term came up a few other times in the text and 'representatives' seemed the most appropriate choice. "
10 hrs

attorney-in-fact

This is the legal term, however, I tend to agree with the colleague that suggested representative in this context.

proxy

avoids all legalistic scrambles re. a rather cumbersome "a person with a power of attorney" or "attorney-in-fact"
Example sentence:

...to nominate co-directors and proxies..., etc...

Executive officers (in context)

These are people like the CEO and the "direttori" who are senior managers and not necessarily "consiglieri", although in reality they are almost always board members.
