An Investment group or chama is any collection of individuals or legal persons in any form whatsoever including but not limited thereto: societies registered under the societies Act, partnerships and limited liability companies whose objective is the pooling together of capital and or resources with the aim of using the collated resources for investment purposes.

Generally, an investment group is any group of individuals, who pool resources together, to invest in a project that will yield a profit, which will be shared among the members in prescribed ratio. These groups are developed by a people who share similar social interests and a desire to learn more about investing.

Usually, when one talks of an investment group, many often associate this with an organization that solely deals with shares and other similar securities traded in the stock exchange. However, the truth lies in the definition of an investment group. It therefore follows that even those groups that invest in real estate or general business should fall under the category of investment groups.
