There is a long list of assets out of which some are elegible for reuse, namely those that provide a solution to a given problem.

=Typical assets in systems and software world that can be reused= While the terminology may vary, typical assets in the Software world that can be reused are Intellectual Property assets such as
 * Sales assets, e.g. value propositions, client presentations, demos
 * Solution assets, e.g. code components that solve a particular use case or pain point, solution architectures,
 * Delivery assets, e.g. business process models, maps, delivery tools for helping with design, reporting etc.

These assets are built based on lessons learnt and experiences and typically help companies, avoid spneding the same type of effort over and over again. These assets typically fall on the continuum which, is 'One off project based on fresh requirements -> to a Mature blackbox product like a DB2 or Oracle or WebSphere. These assets can be customized and help provide a PoV and a jumpstart on any project. While a mature 'blackbox' type product can be configured, an Asset allows both configuration as well as customization depending on requirement of a particular project or the typical existing systems the asset is interacting with as a part of solution.

Digital assets such as pictures, videos, etc fall also in the category of Reusable assets.
