Re Protocol deposits user capital in two token forms: reUSD and reUSDe.
Here's how each of them and the system at large work.
reUSD
reUSD rests at the top of Re's capital stack, meaning losses are first absorbed by reUSDe and by Re's own accumulated capital and reserves before they reach reUSD. This provides a substantial buffer, so that only severe scenarios that exhaust lower layers of capital expose reUSD to losses.
Its capital is split between onchain redemption liquidity and offchain collateral deployed to reinsurance. Its yield reflects that deployment mix and its senior position in the stack.
The onchain redemption buffer is based on 50% of the high-water mark of reUSD deposits and is held primarily in sUSDe. Assets received during minting may be held temporarily before conversion.
The remainder can move offchain into Regulation 114 trust accounts that collateralize reinsurance contracts.
Offchain capital earns SOFR plus 250 bps. Onchain capital earns the 7-day trailing average sUSDe yield plus 250 bps. reUSD is available for instant redemption while the liquidity buffer has capacity.
See About reUSD for the maintained yield methodology and risk explanation, and the Redemptions guide for current liquidity policy. Current APY and NAV are available on the metrics page.
reUSDe
reUSDe takes on more risk in exchange for higher yield potential. It absorbs losses before and earns returns after reUSD.
Rather than being split between onchain liquidity and offchain collateral, reUSDe capital is ultimately moved into 114 trusts for deployment as reinsurance collateral.
reUSDe earns the risk-free rate plus an 850 bps spread, reflecting the additional risk it bears as the mezzanine tranche. Redemption capacity is assessed quarterly based on regulatory collateral requirements and the capital available for release from active contracts.
See About reUSDe for the maintained yield methodology and risk explanation, and the Redemptions guide for current quarterly-window mechanics. Current APY and NAV are available on the metrics page.
How risk is handled
If the reinsurance policies take a loss and claims exceed expectations, Re's capital and reserves and reUSDe (the mezzanine layer) absorb those losses first. Because reUSD (the senior layer) is explicitly designed for users seeking yield with lower risk exposure within the capital structure, its capital is the last to be impacted.
The layered system allows you to customize your exposure. You can opt for the remoteness to loss of reUSD, the higher yield potential but higher risk of reUSDe, or a diversified strategy by holding a mix of both.
