Yield Generation in Digital Assets
October 30, 2025 | 3 minutes read
NAV Fund Services has released a collaborative white paper developed with LionSoul Global in which we examine how yield in digital assets is generated, risk-managed, and delivered at institutional standards.
The paper maps the progression from Bitcoin to DeFi, distinguishes sustainable returns from incentives, and outlines how to package strategies within regulated fund structures — complete with the controls, reporting, and governance that institutions require.
Highlights Include:
Know Your Yield — Identify economic drivers (fees, funding, spreads) vs. incentives; prioritize transparency and durability.
Systematic Strategies — Funding-rate and basis trades, liquidity provision, and volatility harvesting—expressed in base currency via delta-hedging and automation.
Risk Management First — Real-time monitoring, diversification across protocols/chains, counterparty and oracle mapping, with defined playbooks for stress events.
From On-Chain to Audit-Ready — NAV's administration framework converts on-chain positions into investor-grade NAV, daily income recognition, and audit-ready reporting.
