Paxos stated that the U.S. Treasury reverse repurchase agreement is a contractual arrangement between two parties, in which one party agrees to sell securities to the other party at a specified price and promises to buy back the securities at another (usually higher) specified price later. If the counterparty defaults, Paxos can liquidate the collateral of U.S. Treasury securities to make up for the loss. Since all trades are over-collateralized, the risk of loss is not considered significant.
