RWA Lending

Real world assets are any tangible or intangible assets that have economic value and can generate cash flows, such as real estate, art, commodities, invoices, loans, etc. These assets represent a huge market opportunity, accounting for over $250 trillion of global wealth. However, they also face many barriers and inefficiencies, such as illiquidity, high transaction costs, lack of transparency, and limited access.

This is where RWA lending comes in. It aims to bridge the gap between traditional and decentralized finance by unlocking the potential of RWA for on- chain lenders and borrowers.

Segment Finance is developing a decentralized platform that enables lending and borrowing opportunities using RWA as collateral. This works by tokenizing RWA and issuing them as digital securities or tokens representing ownership or rights to the underlying assets. These tokens can then be used as collateral to borrow stablecoins or other crypto assets on Segment Finance platform. Alternatively, investors can lend their capital, such as stablecoins or Ether, and earn interest from the borrowers who use RWA as collateral.

By onboarding a variety of RWAs onto the Segment lending platform we are creating new opportunities for asset-backed lending and borrowing and facilitating a seamless market for both digital and traditional investors.
