export const GAsset = ({children}) => <Tooltip headline="Asset" tip="A unit of value tracked in the ledger — traditional currencies (BRL, USD), digital currencies (BTC), or custom units like loyalty points. Every account is linked to exactly one asset." cta="See glossary" href="/en/glossary">

With Midaz, you can configure a global account structure similar to those offered by major banks. In this structure, clients hold accounts in multiple currencies (e.g., BRL, USD, EUR). This setup allows organizations to manage multiple currency accounts under a single client profile.

| Without Midaz                                                           | With Midaz                                                                                                                        |
| :---------------------------------------------------------------------- | :-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Multi-currency accounts require separate systems or complex workarounds | Each currency is an <GAsset>Asset</GAsset>; accounts in different currencies grouped under one <GPortfolio>Portfolio</GPortfolio> |
| No unified customer view across currencies                              | A single portfolio shows all of a client's accounts — BRL, USD, EUR — in one place                                                |
| Currency-specific reporting built manually per system                   | Query all accounts under a portfolio via API for consolidated financial views                                                     |
| Adding a new currency means provisioning new infrastructure             | Create a new Asset and an account — the ledger handles the rest                                                                   |
