Now, when we say "linked"?

That's a little vague...

Carousel Ventures, a company part-owned by Akshata Murty’s venture capital firm, got an investment of £250,000 from the Future Fund to help fund its ownership of a luxury underwear business called Heist Studios, it can be disclosed.

It is the fourth business linked to Murty revealed to have received an investment from the fund set up by Sunak ...

None of Murty’s investments that benefited from the Future Fund appear publicly on Sunak’s register of ministerial interests.

@essell, what exactly is vague here?
