GLOSSARY ENTRY (DERIVED FROM QUESTION BELOW)

Law/Patents - Law (general) / Swiss law
German term or phrase: Gestionsvertrag
In a deed of foundation:

Zur Erreichung des Stiftungszweckes kann die Stiftung Kollektiv-Versicherungsverträge sowie *Gestionsverträge* abschliessen.

I know that "gestion" in French is management, so could this be financial management contracts? It concerns a foundation that provides a pension fund..
