aarna Launches AOT: Policy-First Framework for Institutional DeFi Allocation
**aarna introduces AOT (Autonomous Onchain Treasury)**, a new framework that shifts institutional DeFi allocation from yield-chasing to policy-driven management.
**Key principles:**
- Focus on mandate, risk bounds, liquidity profile, and execution governance rather than APY alone
- Formalizes onchain allocation with defined constraints and continuous oversight
- Addresses treasury-scale challenges: deep pool liquidity limits, manual operation inefficiencies, dynamic risk management
**Problem solved:**
Large treasuries (DAOs, protocols, foundations) face slippage on mid-six-figure positions, concentration risk from manual rebalancing, and lack of transparent audit trails. Traditional approaches either park stables at low yields or chase variable returns that collapse during downturns.
**AOT's approach:**
Provides autonomous, agentic treasury management with onchain verifiability and programmable policies, allowing teams to focus on product development rather than position management.
Targeted at allocators managing multi-million to billion-scale treasuries seeking risk-managed yield with institutional-grade transparency.
