# Methodology

It is widely acknowledged that DeFi introduces significantly greater complexity in risk management, primarily due to its composability and the absence of standardization. In this environment, we need a robust risk assessment framework that considers multiple factors to ensure the security and stability of the Unitus protocol.

Our risk assessment model looks at various aspects, including ***smart contract risk, financial risk,*** and ***counterparty risk***, to comprehensively evaluate the suitability of new assets and collaterals.

Overall, our approach to risk management ensures that Unitus remains a secure and adaptable DeFi protocol, capable of offering users a wide range of assets while safeguarding their interests and minimizing risk. We prioritize the safety and satisfaction of our community members, striving to provide them with the best DeFi experience possible.
