1/ @Balancer DAO has formally adopted a new Investment Policy Statement (IPS) — a framework for managing its treasury with clarity, discipline, and long-term focus.
The IPS was developed in collaboration with kpk, as part of the broader Treasury Migration initiative. 🧵
2/ Why an IPS?
As Balancer grows, so does the complexity of treasury decisions.
The IPS sets shared expectations, defines responsibilities, and provides operational guardrails, while keeping the flexibility to adapt to the DAO’s evolving needs.
3/ The DAO’s primary objective: long-term financial sustainability.
The Treasury is structured to:
➖Preserve capital
➖Maintain liquidity
➖Extend operating runway
➖Reduce reliance on native asset sales
Yield is secondary, and speculation is prohibited.
4/ The DAO’s risk strategy is conservative.
Disallowed activities include speculative trades and exposure to high-risk or unvetted protocols.
Risk is monitored across 6 categories:
market, contract, liquidity, governance, operational, and regulatory.
5/ Deployment is guided by strict constraints:
➖Minimum 3-year stablecoin runway
➖30% max exposure per protocol/asset type
➖Only DAO-approved, strategies
➖No use of BAL products without separate approval
All eligible actions will be constrained by onchain permissions.
6/ Eligible deployment strategies include:
➖Lending and borrowing via DeFi markets
➖Direct or liquid staking
➖Non-directional basis trades
➖Liquidity provisioning
Across Ethereum, Gnosis Chain, Arbitrum, and Base.
Anything else must be explicitly approved by governance.
7/ The IPS also formalises performance review:
➖Monthly treasury reports
➖Monthly financial reports
➖Quarterly strategic assessments
➖Annual full reviews
➖Ad hoc strategy changes via Permissions Update Requests (PURs)
8/ With the IPS in place, @Balancer now has a policy-driven foundation for responsible treasury execution — one that strengthens trust, reduces risk, and supports the protocol’s mission over time.
