Let f : N ≡ P be a holomorphic map between n-dimensional complex manifolds which has only fold singularities. Such a map is called a holomorphic fold map. In the complex 2-jet space J2(n,n;C), let Ω10 denote the space consisting of all 2-jets of regular map germs and fold map germs. In this paper we prove that Ω10 is homotopy equivalent to SU(n + 1). By using this result we prove that if the tangent bundles TN and TP are equipped with SU(n)-structures in addition, then a holomorphic fold map f canonically determines the homotopy class of an SU(n + 1)-bundle map of TN ⊕ θN to TP⊕ θP, where θN and θP are the trivial line bundles.
