# Investments

Key features include a central instrument registry, enriched data fields (codes, categories, company assignment, descriptions), flexible custom management options, and full integration with portfolios, reports, and Data Studio. Investments are linked to Companies and can be grouped into asset classes or sub-categories for reporting.
