The Conjugal Partnership of Gains is governed primarily by the parties' marriage settlement. Only if the settlement is silent do the CPG rules in this Title apply.

Official text — EO 209

Under the regime of conjugal partnership of gains, the husband and wife place in a common fund the proceeds, products, fruits and income from their separate properties and those acquired by either or both spouses through their efforts or by chance, and, upon dissolution of the marriage or of the partnership, the net gains or benefits obtained by either or both spouses shall be divided equally between them, unless otherwise agreed in the marriage settlements.
