Abstract Swedish Securities can be classified in multiple ways. One of the most common ways to classify securities is using Morningstar’s label system. For instance a fund can be Large-Value or Small-Growth. However, these systems have inherit limitations that makes it hard to properly maximize diversification in the selection of a portfolio. In this thesis, we present a method<br> to classify securities that allows flexibility in the number of groups as well as the underlying data on which we classify. The goal is to have a complete system, able to take any universe of securities as input and produce a high-quality classification of that universe of securities.
