CeFi Stablecoins — Understanding Yield and Risk

ACI scores CeFi stablecoin yield providers on reserve quality, regulatory accountability, yield commitment, liquidity, and jurisdiction.

CeFi Stablecoin providers are centralised platforms offering yield on stablecoins. They are scored on: reserve quality (35%), regulatory accountability (20%), yield commitment (10%), liquidity (25%), and jurisdiction (10%). TVL is adjusted by a quality discount before scoring — organic liquidity scores higher than incentivised liquidity. Regulatory accountability is assessed across three dimensions: licensing status (40%), supervisory oversight (40%), and complaint mechanisms (20%).
