Les entreprises publiques sont gérées par le Ministère du Portefeuille, plus spécialement par son organe spécialisé : le Conseil Supérieur du Portefeuille (CSP).
Le Ministère du Portefeuille remonte à l'époque coloniale, période dont la RDC a hérité de la majorité des entreprises publiques ; il y en a 57 classées par catégorie sur base de leur chiffre d'affaires.

Seems to be some part of Canadian govt too.

L'AAC a joué un rôle clé dans la coordination et l'élaboration des positions du Ministère, du portefeuille et du gouvernement du Canada sur certains aspects de la norme d'étiquetage qui ont été développés après avoir consulté les partenaires de l'industrie agroalimentaire qui siègent au comité de l'ONGC, ainsi que d'autres agences et ministères gouvernementaux.

AAFC has played a lead role in coordinating and developing departmental, portfolio and Government of Canada positions on certain key aspects of the labelling standards that were developed through analysis and consultation with agri-food industry stakeholders on the CGSB committee, as well as other government departments and agencies.

"(portfolio ministry) + congo" gets rather more ghits than "(ministry of the portfolio) + congo".

portfolio department/ministry

In Canada these are referred to as portfolio departments (department being the equivalent of ministry). For example, enter "Ministère du Portefeuille" as a search term in Google advanced and select gc.ca (Canadian government) as the domain, and you'll get plenty of hits on Cdn. gov't sites where you'll find the term and can toggle to the English to get the equivalent.

And the example sentence continues:
Schedule I of the Financial Administration Act sets out the “core public administration”
which comprises the eighteen major portfolio departments plus the departments of
Finance and Treasury Board.
