Structured products
Structured products leverage a sequence of different interest rate products, options, and other financial products to build investments that can adapt to different risk profiles, market expectations, and asset classes.

These sophisticated products are gaining in popularity (over $ 7 million in traditional finance) and have recently begun to gain attention in decentralized finance (DeFi), primarily in the form of covered calls and cash margin puts.
Challenges when creating structured products with DeFi

In addition, many of the protocols that offer these products are fragmented in liquidity as a result of having multiple maturities, but they continue to use storage capabilities, resulting in large volumes of transactions in shallow market depths. When done, it will result in significant slippage or significant changes in discount rates.
