Ownership, access and capital—considered together.
Our custody and financing direction covers asset storage, transaction approvals and borrowing against digital assets. Ownership rights, key control, collateral valuation and repayment terms need to be defined separately.
Assess a financing need
Compare the amount needed with eligible collateral, valuation limits, interest, repayment dates and liquidation terms.
Track pledged and available assets
Distinguish assets available for use from those pledged to a lender. Identify the records needed to reconcile each balance.
START WITH THE REQUIREMENTS
A clear brief makes a useful conversation.
These four considerations help define the scope, responsibilities and practical requirements for a proposal.
- 01
Map the assets
Asset types, networks, ownership arrangements and transaction frequency.
- 02
Assign responsibilities
Provider roles, key control, approval authority and recovery procedures.
- 03
Specify financing terms
Collateral eligibility, haircuts, valuation, interest, maturity and margin-call rules.
- 04
Plan stressed conditions
Liquidity shortfalls, price shocks, provider outages, recovery and collateral release.
Ownership and segregation
A technical wallet design does not by itself establish legal protection. Agreements and provider responsibilities must define the treatment of assets.
Operational and provider risk
Keys, access controls, recovery processes and third-party dependencies can affect the ability to move or recover assets.
Collateral and liquidation
Falling collateral values can require additional assets or repayment. Liquidation may occur during stressed markets and generate losses.
Scope & availability
These areas describe Avermont’s development scope and are not currently offered to clients. Availability depends on applicable permissions, jurisdiction, eligibility, counterparties and final terms. Read the legal information.
