After a person's death, their bank account funds become part of the inheritance and cannot be accessed by family members without proper legal documentation. The bank must be notified of the death, leading to a freeze on account operations until rightful heirs present necessary documents. Even if a person was authorized to manage the account during the owner's life, this authorization ceases upon death. Heirs must follow the succession procedure at a notary and provide a certificate of inheritance to access the funds. The bank is obligated to inform heirs about the account balance at the time of death, but details of transactions prior to that may require justification due to banking secrecy.
