(

The liquidator of the federation shall also assume the winding-up of the investment fund and of the guarantee fund according to the same rules. Likewise, the liquidator of a guarantee fund shall also assume the winding-up of the federation related to the guarantee fund and of the federation’s investment fund according to the same rules.
