Reserve Factor Updates (Jan 15, 2024)
01Summary
Increase Reserve Factor (RF) by 5% for most assets on Polygon v2 (DAI, USDC, USDT, wETH, MATIC) to reduce deposit yields and encourage migration to v3. Assets already at 99.99% (wBTC, BAL) remain unchanged. This routes more interest to Aave DAO Treasury without affecting borrowing rates or user fund safety.

02Description
Simple Summary
This AIP is a continuation of Governace V3 ProposalID 1 and increases the Reserve Factor (RF) for assets on Polygon v2 by 5.00%, up to a maximum of 99.99%.
Motivation
This AIP will reduce deposit yield for assets on Polygon v2 by increasing the RF. With this upgrade being passed, users will be further encouraged to migrate from Polygon v2 to v3.
Increasing the RF routes a larger portion of the interest paid by users to Aave DAO's Treasury. User's funds are not at risk of liquidation and the borrowing rate remains unchanged.
Of the assets with an RF set at 99.99%, there is no change. All other asset reserves will have the RF increased by 5%.
Specification
The following parameters are to be updated as follows:
| Asset | Reserve Factor |
|---|---|
| DAI | 66.00% |
| USDC | 68.00% |
| USDT | 67.00% |
| wBTC | 99.99% |
| wETH | 90.00% |
| MATIC | 86.00% |
| BAL | 99.99% |
