# Collateral Configuration

With Coupon Finance, risk is rewarded 💰

In Coupon, the same asset can be lent out to relatively safe collateral for lower rates or risky collateral for higher rates. This enables higher yields without compromising the whole protocol.

Our m:n mapping allows us to customize the risk. This means long-tail assets can be listed on Coupon, opening up opportunities for both lenders and borrowers.

The asset to collateral m:n mapping will be set by Coupon governance in the future. This ensures a dynamic and responsive ecosystem that adapts to changing market conditions.
