Response to WalRa\'s grading comment (I just need more space...): You\'re right in pointing out that \"Mandatsgeschäft\" has several meanings - in the case of Gold-Zack (whom I happen to know reasonably well, because I have translated two annual reports for Gontard & MetallBank...) \"Mandate\" means IPO mandates. Here, however, the context is defined by the reference to mutual funds - which provides for a rather narrow definition of \"Mandatsgeschäft\".

institutional trust funds

The term "Mandat" can be translated under certain conditions as "trust". Trust funds are highly regulated funds with upper limits on the amount of risk that can be assumed by fund managers.

I think you should explore further before making a selection. The selections that I have observed thus far do not appear correct.
