# Lending

Lending on TownSquare allows you to deposit assets to be borrowed by others, earning you yields in base interest fee (base APY) & incentives.

Unlike a market model where liquidity is divided into several lend/borrow pairs for an asset, lending deposits on TownSquare pools can be borrowed against any collateral, increasing capital utilization and potential lending yield.
