Fixed-rate, fixed-term lending markets.

The borrower sets the terms they need. The rate is locked at origination and does not move for the life of the loan. One borrower, one collateral type, one vault.

Every bar ends. Variable-rate lending never matures, so it cannot be drawn this way. Sorted by maturity, a fixed-term book forms a ladder. Vaults and rates shown are illustrative examples, not quoted rates.

How a Single Asset Vault runs.

From application to settlement. The borrower proposes the term and size; the risk committee approves the collateral.

01

A borrower applies and proposes terms

An institution brings collateral it does not want to sell, and states the size and term it needs. It completes KYC and signs a Master Loan Agreement with Splyce Finance.

02

The risk committee approves the collateral

Collateral type, valuation method and overcollateralization are set before the vault exists. Issuer-whitelisted assets clear the designated liquidator framework first.

03

The vault opens with terms fixed

One borrower, one collateral type, one rate, one term. The rate is locked at origination and does not move for the life of the loan.

04

Lenders fund it

Lend USDC directly, or hold splyceUSDC and let its fixed-income half allocate for you. Lending is permissionless.

05

Settlement at maturity

The borrower repays principal and interest, and reclaims the collateral. If they do not, the resolution process agreed at vault creation is triggered: direct transfer to lenders onchain, or conversion to USDC by a designated liquidator.

Isolated, not pooled.

Most onchain lending puts every lender in one pool. A vault is a market of one.

Pooled lendingEvery lender sits behind every borrower. One position going wrong is absorbed by all of them, whether or not they ever wanted that exposure.
Single Asset VaultsOne borrower, one collateral type, one set of terms. If something goes wrong it stops at the wall of the vault it happened in.

1

Borrower per vault

You know exactly whose obligation you are funding, rather than a blended pool of anonymous positions.

1

Collateral type per vault

No cross-collateralization. A repricing in one asset class has no path into another vault.

0

Contagion between markets

A default is bounded by the vault it happens in, and the resolution path was agreed when that vault opened.

Common questions.

What are Single Asset Vaults?

A Single Asset Vault (SAV) is an isolated, fixed-rate, fixed-term lending market. One borrower posts one collateral type and draws USDC at a fixed rate for a fixed term. Terms are set once at origination and held for the full duration. Lenders deposit USDC during the funding window and have their rate locked at deposit. At maturity, the borrower repays principal plus interest. No oracle price feeds watch the position mid-term.

How is the fixed rate determined?

The borrower proposes the fixed rate at vault origination. Lenders decide whether the rate is attractive for the term and collateral on offer. Because the fixed-rate structure is valuable to institutional borrowers, they compete by setting terms that attract lender confidence. Once you deposit, your rate is locked for the full term regardless of market conditions.

What happens if a borrower defaults?

SAVs are overcollateralized. If a borrower fails to repay at maturity, the collateral resolution process agreed at vault creation is triggered. Depending on collateral type, this may involve direct transfer of collateral to lenders pro rata onchain, or conversion to USDC by a designated liquidator. If proceeds are insufficient, lenders absorb the shortfall pro rata. Because each vault is isolated, a default in one vault cannot cascade to affect any other vault.

Can I exit a vault before maturity?

SAV lenders commit capital for the full term. There is no guaranteed secondary market for vault tokens, and lenders who need early exit may be unable to find buyers. If you need on-demand liquidity, splyceUSDC provides exposure to SAV yield through its fixed-income bucket with no term commitment.

What can be used as collateral?

SAVs accept two categories of collateral: (1) freely transferable tokens that settle permissionlessly onchain, and (2) restricted tokens subject to issuer whitelist controls, available only where the issuer has authorized the SAV escrow contract and a designated liquidator. Eligible collateral includes tokenized real-world assets, institutional money market instruments, and institutional digital assets. Restricted collateral SAVs are not available at launch.

What's the difference between fixed-rate and variable-rate lending?

In variable-rate lending your rate floats with pool utilization and can change block to block. In a Single Asset Vault the rate is fixed at deposit and held to maturity, so both borrower and lender know the exact economics in advance.

Is a fixed term the same as a fixed rate?

No. A fixed rate locks the interest rate; a fixed term locks the maturity date. Single Asset Vaults fix both: your rate is locked at deposit and the loan settles at a defined maturity, a 30-day maximum at launch.
