# How does Raga Finance generate returns

Every chain is different, and so are the strategies involved to generate returns on them. The most common ways that Raga vaults generate returns are:

* **Delta-Neutral Strategies:** Combine long staking positions with short hedges (e.g. via Ethena) to capture staking rewards while minimizing exposure to price volatility.
* **Staking & Restaking:** Lock assets in native PoS or liquid-staking protocols (e.g., Lido, EigenLayer). Rewards are continuously restaked to compound returns.
* **Lending:** Supply assets to leading lending platforms (e.g., Aave, LayerBank) to earn interest from borrowers and protocol incentives.
* **Looping:** Recursively borrow and re-lend collateral to amplify yield. Loop depth is optimized to balance extra return against liquidation risk.
* **Yield trading:** Maximise fixed yield generation through interest trading protocols (e.g., Pendle, Spectra) by looping yields on PT-strategies

To know more about the active strategies, you can have a look at vaults for following chains:

## 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.raga.finance/overview/how-does-raga-finance-generate-returns.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.

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.
