Mutual Funds are portfolios of transferable securities managed by professionals and held collectively (in the form of units) by individual or institutional investors.  These savings products are approved by the Commission de Surveillance du Marche Financier de l'Afrique Centrale (COSUMAF). They are invested in various financial instruments (equities, bonds, debt securities, etc.) in accordance with the investment rules defined in the regulations. The entities that manage them (UCI management companies) are also subject to COSUMAF authorisation..

The Mutual Fund is a co-ownership of transferable securities, which issues units. The unitholder has none of the rights conferred on a shareholder. FCP units are sold by distributors or by the Management Company. The Management Company is responsible for the administrative, accounting and financial management of the FCP; the Custodian is mainly responsible for checking that management decisions taken on behalf of the FCP are in order and for ensuring that the FCP's assets (securities, cash) are properly safeguarded, and the Statutory Auditor is responsible for certifying certain of the Mutual Fund's accounting documents.
