# How to Add, View, and Manage Funds in ark

This guide walks you through how to add new funds, customize your view in the Funds tab, and update fund details using the ark Admin Portal. You can add funds individually or in bulk using a CSV template and adjust how fund data is displayed for easier navigation.

> **Note:** Adding funds is a foundational step in setting up your ark portal. Other records—like investors and transactions—must be linked to a fund.
