SYRUP

The institutional gateway to DeFi

Maple Finance is strategically positioned to capture a significant share of the institutional credit market by providing a compliant and transparent bridge between traditional finance and decentralized finance. The platform's exclusive focus on institutional clients addresses a critical need for professionally managed, onchain credit products that meet stringent compliance and KYC standards.

‍

Institutional credibility and leadership

Maple’s leadership team comprises seasoned professionals from top-tier financial institutions, including J.P. Morgan, Bank of America, and Deutsche Bank, who bring deep expertise in capital markets and structured finance to the DeFi ecosystem. This foundational credibility has secured strategic backing from reputable investors like BlockTower Capital¹ and is reinforced by a commitment to transparency through public audits and detailed financial disclosures.

‍

Sustainable economic model

The economic engine of the protocol is fueled by its highly successful institutional lending activities, which have already generated over $10.8 billion in total loan originations and paid $104 million in interest to lenders². A portion of the fees from this activity is used to fund strategic buybacks of the SYRUP token³ from the open market. This mechanism creates a direct link between platform growth and token value, designed to benefit all holders.
