Institutional investors are showing interest in decentralized finance (DeFi), but many are still hesitant to fully embrace the sector.

Challenges in Adopting DeFi Solutions

According to a survey conducted by P2P, a blockchain infrastructure provider, institutions face significant challenges in adopting DeFi solutions.

While high yields are attractive, concerns about regulatory and security risks create a complex landscape for potential investors.

Technological Hurdles and Operational Risks

Institutions are seeking diverse yield solutions to enhance fund performance, but technological hurdles, particularly risks associated with smart contracts, remain a barrier.

Operational risks and the need to balance high returns with risk management also pose challenges.

Regulatory Uncertainty and Compliance Costs

Regulatory uncertainty and compliance costs slow down innovation in the DeFi sector.

However, institutions are encouraged to explore opportunities in DeFi despite these challenges.

Institutional Interest in DeFi

Despite the challenges, the sector is witnessing a surge in institutional interest, with notable players making strides.

To capitalize on DeFi opportunities, institutions are advised to explore innovative yield solutions linked to stablecoins and tokenized U.S. treasuries.

Embracing Advanced Technologies

Advanced technologies can improve internal procedures and reduce exposure to risks in the DeFi sector.

Risk-adjusted yield solutions are in demand, emphasizing the need for a cautious yet proactive approach to decentralized finance.
