Italian term or phrase: potere d'imperio
Taken from some banking documentation.

Si tratta dell’attività in cui si esprime il cd. potere d’imperio, che comprende sia il potere di coercizione (arresto, perquisizione, etc.) e di contestazione di violazioni di legge (accertamento di contravvenzioni, etc.), sia i poteri di supremazia gerarchica all’interno di pubblici uffici; il potere certificativo consente di attestare un fatto con efficacia probatoria.

I can't find anything that would work here, I've currently got "power of imperio" but I don't think that's an actual term.

overriding public authority


Explanation:
Having been exposed to enjoyable lax authority at the Portsmouth ex-Royal Naval Barracks on once-brewed Brickwoods Beer in the 'Swinging Sixties', I'm none too sure what the concept has to do with banking documentation, unless the latter outlines force majeure or Act of God /US: *eminent domain* - compulsory purchase scenarios in its terms and conditions.

Granted: poder de imperio: sovereign power, West SPA / AmE law + business dictionary, but quaere - Latin for query: the context.

Example sentence(s):
