Collateralization Rate & Composition Gap
To balance the collateral portfolio, the system adjusts the Collateralization Rate based on deviations from target weights.
- Target weight (w*): Desired share of each asset.
- Current weight (w): Actual deposits by users.
- Composition Gap = Difference between the two.
When the gap is large:
- Collateralization rate increases.
- Effective loan-to-value (LTV) decreases.
- APY for that asset adjusts downward.
This nudges users to deposit underrepresented assets, keeping the portfolio balanced.
Formula
ρeX =
ρmin if w = 0 or w = 100%
ρmin + (ρImax – ρmin) * ((w* – w) / w*) if 0 < w ≤ w*
ρmin + (ρIImax – ρmin) * ((w – w*) / (100% – w*)) if w* < w ≤ 100%
