Jījīn
background
In Chinese, '基金' (Jījīn) is often used to refer to a pool of money that is collected and managed for a specific purpose. It is typically used in a financial or investment context, such as a mutual fund. The Chinese term consists of two characters: '基' (Jī), which usually is understood as basic or foundation, and '金' (Jīn), which translates to gold, a common metonym for money or wealth.
