Each physical or legal entity that wants to undertake the administration of assets which is comparable to management, meaning activity consisting of the collection of finances for the purpose of their collective investment based on a specified investment strategy. Such entities must be registered in the register kept by the Czech National Bank according to Section 596(f) of Act No. 240/2013 Coll., on Management Companies and Investment Funds.

An alternative fund is registered with the Czech National Bank, but is not subject to its supervision.
