Risk Management
Our risk process covers the full lifecycle of a market, from underwriting before listing to monitoring and emergency response in operation.
- Every collateral asset completes a written risk assessment covering smart contract risk, liquidity risk, and oracle risk. RWA collateral is additionally reviewed for issuer quality, collateralization structure, and legal framework.
- Caps are sized relative to the collateral’s on-chain liquidity so that even a worst-case allocation does not put the vault at critical risk. Increases require a fresh risk review and go through the timelock.
- Markets are sized and allocated to keep withdrawal liquidity available under normal conditions, with concentration limits per market and utilization thresholds that trigger reallocation reviews.
- Utilization, liquidity depth, oracle integrity, and borrower health are monitored daily through automated tooling, with predefined escalation procedures for alerts.
- Our Sentinel will deallocate funds or cut caps immediately for compromised markets without a timelock. Emergency events will be disclosed publicly.
