Spanish term
realizar todos los actos y contratos
Spanish to English
Law/Patents
General / Conversation / Greetings / Letters
This appears in a document relating to powers of attorney in a business for translation from Spanish into UK English.
Context:
1. DISPONIBILIDAD DE BIENES Y VALORES
Los apoderados podrán:
- *** Realizar todos los actos y contratos *** sobre títulos valores, acciones, participaciones, obligaciones o cualquier otro derecho incorporado a un título que impliquen facultades de propiedad del título, en particular (v) firmar pactos de socios o accionistas que vinculen la posición de la Sociedad como accionista, socio o partícipe en la entidad de que se trate,
- Las facultades anteriormente indicadas incluyen, en cada caso, la de modificar los actos o contratos celebrados en uso de las mismas, incluyendo la novación subjetiva y cesión del contrato.
I would normally translate this as 'to perform all acts and enter into all contract' or something similar but I have been given a supporting document as a guide which I have been told to stick to strictly and every time this phrase comes up - and it comes up a lot - it has been translated as 'Execute any legal provisions and contracts'. The supporting document is a very good translation so I have now come to doubt my own opinion. Obviously an 'act' can be a 'legal provision' in some circumstances but here I think it is completely wrong. Do let me know your thoughts. TIA.

Note from asker:
I think deeds here could be confusing with 'instrumentos' |

: You'll disagree with this, but "all" is redundant :-)

If you would care to look at some sample En language POAs you will see that the inclusion of "all" is very common

carry out all (manner of) dealings and contracts
... sobre = in (respect of).
Perform dealings arguably works vs. conduct that or which doesn't for contracts.
Cut to Seth P's discussion enry re transactions.
BTW, it's actos rather than the usual mix-up of actas as records, instruments or deeds.
Middling CL / confidence level because of ProZ translators' and interpreters' odd aversion to the legal, stockbroking and conveyancing term of art of dealings.
