Prerequisites: You should understand borrowing fundamentals, Health Factor management, and risk management before implementing these strategies.
Advanced strategies involve higher risk. Start with small positions to understand the mechanics before scaling up.

Core Benefits

Capital Efficiency

Maximize the utility of your tokenized assets by earning yield while simultaneously using them as collateral. Your assets work harder for you, generating returns in multiple ways rather than sitting idle.

Tax Optimization

Access liquidity without triggering taxable events through strategic borrowing against appreciated positions. This Lombard Credit approach can defer taxes indefinitely while maintaining full asset exposure.

Financial Flexibility

No fixed loan terms, prepayment penalties, or rigid structures. Borrow and repay on your timeline, adapting to market conditions and personal circumstances as they evolve.

Wealth Preservation Strategies

Lombard Credit

Tax-Optimized Liquidity: Borrow against appreciated tokenized stocks without triggering capital gains. Maintain full upside exposure while accessing needed capital.

Estate Planning

Generational Wealth: Structure borrowing to optimize inheritance tax treatment while providing liquidity across generations without forced asset sales.

Investment & Trading Strategies

Margin Trading

Amplified Exposure: Use tokenized stocks as collateral to leverage long/short positions, increasing potential returns while managing risk through overcollateralization.

Pair Trading

Market Neutral: Simultaneously long undervalued and short overvalued tokenized stocks, capturing relative performance while minimizing directional risk.

Leverage Looping

Compounded Leverage: Deposit collateral → borrow → buy more assets → re-deposit, systematically amplifying exposure to high-conviction positions.

Arbitrage Opportunities

Cross-Market: Exploit price differences between traditional and tokenized markets, or across different DeFi protocols and exchanges.

Yield Enhancement

Income Stacking: Earn lending yields on supplied assets while borrowing for additional yield opportunities, optimizing total portfolio returns.

Portfolio Rebalancing

Tax-Efficient: Adjust allocations by borrowing rather than selling, maintaining cost basis while implementing strategic changes.

Fast Access: Quickly access stablecoins for time-sensitive investments without disrupting long-term tokenized stock positions.

Expense Management

Flexible Liquidity: Cover large expenses or cash flow needs while preserving investment positions and avoiding forced sales.

Fund Operations: Investment funds can implement sophisticated strategies like covered call writing, protective puts, and complex spread trades using borrowed capital. Market Making: Professional traders can access inventory financing to provide liquidity across multiple tokenized stock markets simultaneously.

Personal Finance Optimization

Retirement Planning: Pre-retirees can access current income through borrowing while preserving long-term growth assets for future retirement needs. Education Funding: Parents can finance education expenses without liquidating long-term investment positions, maintaining wealth-building momentum. Home Ownership: First-time buyers can access down payments using tokenized stock portfolios while maintaining market exposure during property appreciation.
