OSL Wealth Debuts Stablecoin Yield-Generating Product via Ethena
TL;DR: OSL Wealth Partnership with Ethena, giving institutional clients dollar-pegged stability, auto-compounding on-chain yield, and daily liquidity. HONG KONG, May 28, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — OSL Wealth, under OSL Group, announces a new yield-generating product that seamlessly channels the performance of Ethena Labs' Staked USDe (sUSDe) to OSL's professional and institutional clients. Clients simply trade through OSL's OTC desk—using USD or USDT—and receive an instrument that (i) auto-compounds historically low-to-mid-teen net APY into its price, (ii) maintains constant 1:1 redemption into USDe for dollar stability, (iii) offers business-day subscriptions and redemptions with no lock-ups or performance fees, and (iv) is safeguarded around the clock in OSL's segregated, insured custody. sUSDe is the reward-bearing version of Ethena's synthetic stablecoin, USDe. By pairing ETH collateral with short perpetual-futures hedges, the underlying protocol harvests funding-rate income and staking rewards, compounding them into the token's value while preserving a 1:1 dollar peg. OSL Wealth now wraps that mechanism inside its own regulated offering, so clients can benefit from sUSDe's yield without managing staking wallets, on-chain hedges, or complex custody flows. Tony Luk, Head of OSL Wealth stated, 'Our clients want dollar stability that earns a real return, delivered through an institution they already trust. By integrating sUSDe under OSL's compliance, custody, and security framework, we've turned a technically demanding DeFi strategy into a turnkey income product.' 'OSL has set the bar for regulated digital asset services in Asia,' noted Steven Shi, Head of Institutional Growth, Ethena Labs. 'Their adoption of sUSDe brings our yield-bearing stablecoin to an audience that demands both transparency and institutional-grade safeguards.' ¹ Past performance is not indicative of future results. Yield fluctuates with perp-funding rates and staking returns.
