# Oracle-Verified RFQ

### What is OVR?

OVR (**Oracle-Verified RFQ**) is a secure and transparent asset-swapping channel specifically designed for Vault Managers within Affluent. When a Vault Manager initiates a swap, multiple market makers compete by providing quotes to ensure the best execution price.

All proposed prices are verified against oracle. If a quote deviates beyond the pre-defined slippage threshold, the trade is automatically rejected, ensuring only fair, market-aligned transactions are executed.

### Why it Matters?

OVR enforces strict execution rules that shield depositors from excessive slippage and poor pricing. By requiring every quote to remain within an owner-defined tolerance—validated against an oracle—the system blocks trades that could erode user returns. Continuous competition among market makers further compresses costs, delivering better yields even during volatile market conditions.

### Market Maker

Market Makers act as the execution layer between Vault Managers and external protocols. They handle asset swaps, minting, burning, and cross-chain bridging, implementing each vault’s strategic intent without exposing it to unnecessary smart-contract risk. By sourcing quotes and settling trades within oracle-verified price bands, Market Makers ensure efficient delivery of tokenised assets and strategies—including RWAs, DeFi, and CeFi—so Affluent users can access sophisticated opportunities with minimal friction.

### Key Parameters

| Parameter                     | Description                                                                                     | Configuration       |
| ----------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ------------------- |
| **Price-Deviation Tolerance** | Maximum slippage permitted per trade, set by the vault owner.                                   | `sendSetRFQConfig`  |
| **Min / Max Buy-Asset Value** | Per-order bounds on trade size and slippage, defined by the Vault Manager when creating an RFQ. | In each RFQ payload |

These parameters keep every transaction within predefined risk limits while still allowing Market Makers to compete on price
