For Institutions
Amara is designed not only for individual traders and liquidity providers but also for institutions that want structured exposure to sustainability markets. Traditional financial institutions face steep barriers to entering carbon markets: limited access, fragmented registries, and high transaction costs. Amara provides a pathway for them to experiment, hedge, and allocate capital through synthetic assets in DeFi.
Green Index Exposure A key offering for institutions is the planned Green Basket Index.
Diversification: Instead of managing exposure across multiple synthetic carbon credit markets, institutions can gain diversified access in a single instrument.
Efficiency: The index reduces operational overhead. A single position gives exposure to a mix of sustainability-linked tokens, simplifying portfolio management.
Liquidity: Since the index is pooled on-chain, it benefits from Amara’s unified liquidity layer, making it easier to enter and exit positions without slippage concerns.
Risk Management Tools Perpetual markets within Amara also offer hedging opportunities for institutional actors.
Leverage and Shorts: Institutions can take short positions on synthetic carbon markets to hedge long-term exposure elsewhere.
Funding Rates: Dynamic funding ensures market equilibrium, giving institutions clear pricing signals for supply and demand imbalances.
Collateral Flexibility: Support for stablecoins and other base assets allows them to interact without being tied exclusively to volatile tokens.
Compliance and Transparency Amara’s use of subgraphs and on-chain data makes it straightforward to generate transparent records of activity. For institutions that require compliance-grade reporting:
Every transaction, position, and pool state is traceable.
Subgraphs provide structured datasets for internal accounting or third-party audits.
This transparency aligns with ESG mandates that require clear documentation of sustainability-linked investments.
Strategic Advantage By engaging early, institutions gain a foothold in a market projected to reach 2.4 trillion dollars by 2027. Synthetic markets let them test strategies without the overhead of regulated carbon registries, while still participating in the financial flows of sustainability assets.
Amara positions institutions not just as participants but as pioneers. By providing capital and volume to these new synthetic markets, they help bridge the gap between traditional finance and DeFi while aligning their portfolios with the accelerating global push toward sustainability.
