With an extensive experience in traditional money markets, Maple Finance was envisioned as an institutional capital marketplace which combines the transparency & capital efficiency of blockchains with the regulatory framework of TradFi. Unlike many DeFi protocols that require over-collateralized loans (e.g. Aave), Maple also specializes in under-collateralized lending, enabling greater capital efficiency for institutional borrowers. With over $6b in loans since its inception, Maple plans to further expand its offerings by including RWAs as collateral assets.

Topics covered in this episode:

  • Sid’s background
  • The vision behind Maple Finance
  • Maple’s tech stack
  • Deciding risk profiles
  • Over-collateralized vs. under-collateralized loans
  • Assets accepted as collateral

  • Institutional appeal
  • Managing defaults

  • Converging DeFi & TradFi

  • Exciting upcoming trends
  • Future roadmap
