# Risk Parameter Updates for 2 Assets on USDC Comet Market ## Simple Summary A proposal to adjust one (1) risk parameter for two (2) Compound V3 assets. ## Background Gauntlet's simulation engine has ingested the latest market and liquidity data. These recommendations are Gauntlet's regular parameter recommendations as part of [Dynamic Risk Parameters](https://www.comp.xyz/t/dynamic-risk-parameters/2223). [Full proposal and forum discussion](https://www.comp.xyz/t/compound-v3-usdc-comet-risk-parameter-updates-2022-12-28/3946) ## Motivation and Specification This set of parameter updates seeks to maintain the overall risk tolerance of the protocol while making risk trade-offs between specific assets. Our parameter recommendations are driven by an optimization function that balances 3 core metrics: insolvencies, liquidations, and borrow usage. Our parameter recommendations seek to optimize for this objective function. For more details, please see [Gauntlet's Parameter Recommendation Methodology](https://medium.com/gauntlet-networks/gauntlets-parameter-recommendation-methodology-8591478a0c1c) and [Gauntlet's Model Methodology](https://medium.com/gauntlet-networks/gauntlets-model-methodology-ea150ff0bafd). ![](https://i.imgur.com/mYYuHfP.png) ## Specification The proposal uses the Configurator contract to configure and upgrade to a new Comet with the updated parameters. ## Dashboard Gauntlet has launched the [Compound Risk Dashboard](https://gov.gauntlet.network/compoundv3_eth_usdc). The community should use the Dashboard to understand better the updated parameter suggestions and general market risk in Compound. Value at Risk represents the 95th percentile **insolvency value** that occurs from simulations we run over a range of volatilities to approximate a tail event. Liquidations at Risk represents the 95th percentile **liquidation volume** that occurs from simulations we run over a range of volatilities to approximate a tail event. ![](https://i.imgur.com/foixZJE.png) *By approving this proposal, you agree that any services provided by Gauntlet shall be governed by the terms of service available at gauntlet.network/tos.*
