Welcome to the on Secured Finance, your gateway to fixed-income trading. This interface enables you to engage in peer-to-contract lending and trading of zero-coupon (ZC) bonds with simplicity, efficiency, and transparency.
In ZC bond trading, you have the flexibility to buy or sell zero-coupon bonds at any time. When buying a bond, you’re effectively lending assets, while selling a bond equates to borrowing assets. All transactions occur on our Orderbook, which pairs trades directly with counterparties via smart contracts.
When you buy a ZC bond, you lend your assets to the smart contract. Your order is matched with another user, and over time, your initial investment accrues interest, reaching face value at the bond’s maturity. Conversely, selling a bond means borrowing assets: you receive funds upfront and repay the bond's face value upon maturity.
Our ZC bond trading offers a flexible, efficient way to earn interest or borrow assets. You can adjust your positions as needed, giving you full control over your investments by trading against the Orderbook market.
If you want to exit a position, you can unwind a trade with ease. For lenders, this means selling your bond, while for borrowers, it involves repaying your loan. The platform’s design ensures a seamless process for finding counterparties, allowing for smooth and efficient trade unwinding.
Upon maturity, funds are automatically reinvested into the next 3-month maturity cycle via our Auto-Roll feature. This functionality minimizes reinvestment risks and promotes steady growth by keeping your assets continuously invested. See our section for more details.
Secured Finance prioritizes loan security with robust collateral management and smart contract technology. Borrowers are required to pledge collateral, which is managed by the smart contract to reduce counterparty risk. Our smart contracts enforce loan terms automatically, enhancing security and reliability. For more details, see our and sections.
