The insurance fund may also be used in the case of an exploitative hack that results in undercollateralization of UXD's stablecoin. The insurance fund will be managed by the forthcoming UXP DAO. With the introduction of the [Asset Liability Management Module](/uxdprotocol/overview/uxd-basics/asset-liability-management-module-alm.md) (ALM), UXD Protocol's insurance fund will act as the "equity/first loss" piece of the protocol, assuming initial losses that may occur from assets held. UXD's insurance fund was initially capitalized at $57,086,131 as of 11/14/2021. This means that at its initial value, UXD's insurance fund could withstand -11.4% funding rates on $500 milllion of UXD for an entire year. If the insurance fund is depleted, UXD will hold an auction of UXP tokens to replenish the insurance fund. --- # Agent Instructions This documentation is published with GitBook.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter: ``` GET https://docs.uxd.fi/uxdprotocol/overview/insurance-fund.md?ask=&goal= ``` `ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language. `goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal. The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation. Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
