Assign an investment category

Assign an investment category

Investment categories allow finance companies to categorise investors e.g. institutional investors, wholesale investors, retail investors. This gives the business the ability to assign certain functionality in the platform to certain investment categories. 

Investment categories are used to define many features that are available to investors such as:
- Default investment options
- Default automated repayment frequencies 
- Default mandates
