Catenaa, Tuesday, January 13, 2026- TermMax, a fixed-rate decentralized finance protocol, launched the first fixed-rate borrowing market for tokenized stock collateral on BNB Chain, enabling Ondo Global Markets’ tokenized securities as eligible collateral.
The platform addresses institutional demand for predictable borrowing costs amid recent market volatility.
TermMax uses a zero-coupon bond model to deliver fixed yields for lenders and transparent borrowing costs for borrowers.
The system allows early repayment or rollover extensions, reflecting traditional stock-borrowing practices for corporate treasuries and asset managers.
Ondo Global Markets hosts over $350 million in total value locked and tokenizes more than 100 U.S. stocks and ETFs. TermMax’s integration enables holders of tokenized equities to access fixed-rate liquidity, bridging traditional securities with decentralized finance.
The protocol supports physical delivery and options strategies, offering yield generation through covered calls and call/put options for stock token holders.
Risk management features include over-collateralization and on-chain tracking of all loan positions, aligning with institutional standards.
TermMax’s curated vault system allows professional managers to deploy capital across multiple fixed-rate markets while maintaining strict risk controls.
The expansion into tokenized securities follows TermMax’s roadmap to combine real-world assets with DeFi, increasing capital efficiency and providing predictable returns.
The launch reflects growing institutional interest in DeFi solutions that reduce exposure to rate volatility while enabling sophisticated financial engineering.
