The partnership will accelerate the adoption of DeFi derivatives on the blockchain. By using proven methodologies to reduce inherent counterparty risks.

Cega is building a suite of exotic options products for investors starting with the protocols exotic derivative fixed coupon notes. The protocol allows investors to provide capital (aka “principal”) to the FCN note issuer (market maker), who promises to pay yield (“interest”) periodically and return the principal when the note expires. The Market Makers are onboarded through Credora’s platform, which evaluates sensitive on-chain and off-chain financial information as part of a credit evaluation. The technology powering real-time components of the credit evaluation is provably neutral and verifiable. The creditworthiness of the Market Makers is updated in real-time data to ensure Cega investors have appropriate counterparties.

Credora services have a proven track record across various DeFi applications. Credora’s evaluation encompasses real-time risk monitoring, KYC and financial statement analysis. Similar to other applications, Cega gains transparency of the Market Makers risk through Credora’s privacy-preserving credit oracle.

For Market Makers

The Market Makers must onboard through Credora before they can participate in the bidding process for the Cega derivatives. The Credora credit evaluation process captures data across their CeFi and DeFi holdings. To generate a credit rating and additional borrow capacity, which is factored into Cega’s bidding limits. The Market Makers that provide complete real-time metrics increase their opportunity for a higher credit rating.

For Cega Investors

Investors in the Cega protocol will have the ability to initially participate in the open FCN baskets that have varying underlying assets. Investors have the benefit of choosing the asset within the basket to invest and gaining diversified exposure across the asset basket. Through the partnership with Credora, Cega will have access to more data on the Market Makers to make informed decisions on who will win the FCN derivative. Investors benefit from the added credit evaluation, which ensures their capital is with a creditworthy market maker.
