The CDG handles in particular the savings of the RCAR (Régime Collectif d'Allocations de Retraite) and the CNRA (Caisse Nationale de Retraites et d'Assurances) pension funds which groups the retirement contributions of the employees of state-owned companies and agencies. Between 2005 and 2008, CDG gained substantial funding when it acquired the management of the retirement savings of the OCP, the world's leading phosphate producer and exporter. CDG is modeled after the French fund Caisse des dépôts et consignations.
