Cook Protocol

Cook Protocol

Introduction
This paper presents a protocol for a decentralized wealth management platform. The ultimate product is a trustless, transparent, and well-incentivized platform that provides investors with a selection of wealth management services and fund managers with access to highly liquidized funds.

 

Cook Protocol establishes a transparent and flexible asset management platform suited to diverse investors and asset management service providers alike. Investors can monitor a manager’s fund allocations without worrying about fund security or foul play. At the same time, fund managers can leverage Cook Protocol to gain access to investors and carry out virtually any investment strategy without having to opensource the strategy.

 

Cook Protocol
Cook Protocol is built on an Ethereum blockchain that establishes a generic asset management platform, providing investors with a selection of asset management vehicles from fund managers. Funds can be managed passively or actively through whitelisted DeFi protocols. For each investment fund, a unique ERC-20 token – proportional to their contribution to the fund – is issued to investors. Investors can divest the tokens any time in exchange for the equivalent underlying asset. 

 

Mission & Vision
Cook Protocol was founded on the belief that everyone needs to have access to finance. We contend that decentralization holds the key to empowering people around the world to better manage their assets, and we are helping the world move in this direction by accelerating the transition to adopting decentralized finance.

Mission: Accelerate Adoption of Open and Decentralized Finance 
We believe that we can accelerate the adoption of decentralized finance by:

●  Providing investors with secure, transparent and high-quality asset management services

●  Providing fund managers with funds and a variety of asset management tools

Vision: Bring Finance to the Masses
In our journey towards achieving this vision, we are:

●  Democratizing secure, transparent and high-quality financial services with a lasting, positive impact

●  Becoming a world-leading decentralized asset management platform

 

Solutions
To tackle the aforementioned challenges, we are creating an Ethereum-based decentralized asset management platform to provide ordinary investors with professional asset management services. The platform offers the following benefits:

●  Investors can access high-quality asset management services without professional knowledge of decentralized finance (DeFi). They only need to select the appropriate investment strategies and send cryptocurrencies to the corresponding smart contract to obtain ckTokens (fund-specific LP tokens). 

●  Fund managers can create funds, configure investment strategies to attract investors, and use tools on the platform to execute investment strategies.

●  Smart contracts guarantee security of the funds and transparency of the underlying assets by limiting the access of fund managers.

●  Decentralized Autonomous Organization and Tokenomics incentivize global investors and fund managers to interact with each other via smart contracts deployed on Cook Protocol

 

Features
Cook Protocol will tap into the crypto asset management market, which is currently valued at hundreds of billions of dollars and is growing exponentially. Cook Protocol allows investors to select appropriate investment choices provided by fund managers. We provide investors with a sleek and straightforward interface and fund managers with powerful trading tools.

Investors
●  User-friendly UI: A simple, sleek interface to help users navigate through sophisticated DeFi land

●  Investment variety: Index-based and actively-managed funds

●  Security & transparency: Fund security and information transparency guaranteed by smart contract

 Asset Managers
●  Lower initialization fees: The elimination of hefty legal and various fees to begin fund management and receive money from investors

●  Professional trading tools: Access to various blockchain-based money markets and trading tools, such as the token price predictive model

●  IP protection: No need to open-source investment strategies

 

Problems
Traditional asset management markets are opaque in revenue, profit, and risk information. They are usually limited to wealthy private and institutional clients due to inherent structural inefficiencies and hefty fee structures. Blockchain-based wealth management provides a promising alternative because of the open and transparent nature of blockchain technology.

 

However, existing blockchain solutions are often too sophisticated and technically obscure for ordinary investors. Moreover, none of them provides the necessary investment tools for professional fund managers to flexibly carry out a variety of strategies.
