# Tranching

Every lending pool on Qiro Marketplace can be split into three tranches representing different risk and reward profiles. the industry standard is three tranche setup(senior, mezzanine, junior) representing low, high, medium risk/reward respectively. \
\
**1. Senior Tranche :** It's the lowest risk profiles whenever a repayment is made senior tranche receives it first and it has the lowest & fixed interest rate option. if the loan defaults, it will take losses at last offering maximum protection. Liquidity pool investors will be generally investing in this tranche. \
\
**2. Junior Tranche :** It's the highest risk profile it will receive the repayments at last after senior and mezzanine are paid. if loan defaults, it will take the first hit/loss. the interest rate for this tranche is variable and depends on the success of the loan. underwriters will be investing in this tranche. \
\
**3. Mezzanine Tranche :** It's medium risk profile it will have medium risk and rewards. whenever a repayment is made it will receive the payment after senior tranche and before junior tranche. <br>

**Minimum Tranche ratio :** The underwriters based on the assessment of default and loss likelihood will propose a tranche structure to make sure senior is always protected in case of default and junior absorbs maximum loss due to default.  \

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.qiro.fi/products/qiro-marketplace/securitisation/tranching.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`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.
