Collective Investment Law

The Collective Investment Schemes Act defines collective investment schemes as assets raised by investors for collective investment in securities, book-entry securities or real estate and managed by third parties in accordance with the principle of equal treatment.
Collective investment law then regulates distributors and asset managers of collective investment schemes. The topics covered by collective investment law include real estate funds, investment funds and private equity.
