Risk Fund

The RiskFund contract manages the protocol's risk reserves, which serve as a backstop for covering bad debt in the Rheofi Protocol's isolated liquidity pools. It accumulates assets from the ProtocolShareReserve and makes them available for shortfall auctions.

Overview​

The Risk Fund receives a configurable share of protocol income via the ProtocolShareReserve. These funds are consolidated by swapping various tokens into a base asset (typically a stablecoin) using approved DEX routes. When a shortfall auction is triggered, the Risk Fund transfers the required assets to the Shortfall contract to compensate the auction winner.

This mechanism ensures that the protocol maintains a financial buffer against insolvency events across all isolated pools.

    address[][] calldata paths
) external returns (uint256);

transferReserveForAuction​

Transfers Risk Fund assets to the Shortfall contract to fund an active bad debt auction.

function transferReserveForAuction(
    address comptroller,
    uint256 amount
) external returns (uint256);

setConvertibleBaseAsset​

Sets the target base asset that pool assets are swapped into.

function setConvertibleBaseAsset(address _convertibleBaseAsset) external;

getPoolsBaseAssetReserves​

Returns the current base asset reserves allocated for a specific pool.
