Italian term or phrase: immobilizzo
From a description of a real estate investment mutual fund:

"Scopo del suddetto Fondo sarà la gestione professionale e dinamica del patrimonio del Fondo medesimo al fine di accrescere il valore iniziale delle quote, nonché di ripartire tra i partecipanti il risultato netto derivante sia dalla gestione che dall'immobilizzo degli investimenti."

So, on a literal level, it's about the distribution of profits arising from both the management and the "tying up" of the investments, but that doesn't make any sense to me. Any ideas?

Explanation:
I would translate it this way:
... net result from both managing and holding the investments".
or as second best
... net result from both managing and the capital of the investments".
Profits on real estate come either from renting the properties or from the capital gain when prices go up.
