OnRe is pleased to announce that it has selected Allez Labs as its independent risk partner.

ONyc represents a new form of productive collateral onchain, deriving value from reinsurance premiums and reserve asset income rather than token emissions or speculative activity. As ONyc expands across lending markets, liquidity venues, and structured products, risk analysis plays a key role in evaluating collateral quality, liquidity characteristics, DeFi integrations, and portfolio resilience.

Who Is Allez Labs

Allez Labs is a DeFi research, analytics, and risk management firm founded in 2024.

Since 2019, the team has helped secure leading DeFi protocols through multiple market cycles, with experience spanning protocol risk management, quantitative research, governance, collateral evaluation, and the development of analytical infrastructure for institutional-scale lending markets. The team serves as a risk contributor to major protocols including Aave and Kamino and remains an active participant in DeFi governance.

"Reinsurance is one of the world's oldest yield-bearing industries, profitable across decades and structurally uncorrelated to crypto. As a reinsurance actuary, bringing that premium stream onchain through ONyc is one of the most exciting new yield sources I've seen open up in DeFi. Our work at Allez is to audit OnRe's risk surface and advise on how to scale ONyc safely across lending markets, liquidity venues, and structured products.”

— Alex Bertomeu-Gilles, CEO at Allez Labs

How Allez Labs Works

Risk Management – The team provides end-to-end risk management for DeFi protocols and institutional participants, including parameter calibration, Monte Carlo simulation, real-time monitoring, and incident response. Their quantitative models stress-test protocol behavior under extreme market conditions, while their monitoring infrastructure provides continuous visibility into key risk vectors.

Data Analytics and Infrastructure – Allez builds custom data pipelines, APIs, and dashboards that deliver real-time insights across EVM and SVM ecosystems, enabling protocol teams to monitor system health, track performance indicators, and make decisions grounded in data.

Strategic Advisory – Allez supports DeFi protocols and institutional participants across governance, product economics, ecosystem growth, treasury optimization, stablecoin strategy, and structured lending.

Why Independent Risk Analysis Matters

Independent risk analysis has become a foundational component of modern DeFi infrastructure. Across lending markets, collateral frameworks, and structured products, third-party assessments help bring greater transparency around asset quality, liquidity dynamics, and protocol-level risks.

For real-world assets, the need for independent analysis is even greater. As RWAs become more deeply integrated across onchain capital markets, market participants need confidence that collateral is being evaluated objectively, that risk frameworks meet the technical standards required by DeFi markets, and that the teams behind these assets are following sound governance and risk management practices.

Supporting the Growth of ONyc

Understanding ONyc means understanding how reinsurance premiums are generated, how reserve assets are managed, how losses are allocated, and how the underlying portfolio is constructed and governed. It also means understanding how those characteristics translate into yield, liquidity, and risk exposure within onchain market structures.

This combination of insurance and DeFi expertise makes Allez particularly well suited to support ONyc.

Allez Labs will provide ongoing independent analysis of ONyc and OnRe's DeFi markets, helping evaluate collateral quality, liquidity characteristics, portfolio resilience, governance frameworks, product integrations, and broader risk dynamics.

Their work will complement OnRe's existing transparency efforts and provide market participants with an independent perspective on the asset and the infrastructure supporting it.

"As ONyc continues expanding across DeFi, independent analysis helps market participants navigate OnRe's DeFi markets with confidence. Partnering with Allez ensures the analytical infrastructure supporting ONyc evolves alongside its growing role."

— Ayyan Rahman, Chief Growth Officer at OnRe

A Shared Commitment to Transparency

OnRe was built on the belief that bringing real-world premiums onchain as productive collateral requires institutional-quality transparency at every layer. That means regulated insurance infrastructure, independent custody arrangements, transparent reporting, and independent risk analysis.

Partnering with Allez Labs reflects that commitment.
