English term

discretionary collective investment vehicles

English Bus/Financial Investment / Securities
From a text about a real estate fund / real estate asset management company.
I particularly look for the explanation of "discretionary" in this context.
The whole sentence is: "Creation and the management of discretionary collective investment vehicles designed to provide experienced investors with access to real estate investment opportunities world-wide."
Also occurs in: "Design and execution of discretionary real estate funds management strategies on a separate account basis for institutional and private investors. "

Discretionary trust

Definition
Discretionary trusts are one of the most flexible trust funds. Once the assets are transferred to the trust fund, the transferor no longer have legal rights to, or ownership of, them. However, the transferor can maintain control by appointing the trustee. The capital the transferor puts into the trust stays there until the time stipulated by the transferor for funds to be paid out or until such time as the trustees decide to do so.
