# Asset Configuration

Each asset configuration in the protocol is stored in the Silo Repository. An authorized party can determine a default configuration for assets by the protocol design. This configuration will apply to any new asset added to the system and can be updated later.\
\
Configuration for any asset configured through the Silo Repository will apply to all Silos that use this asset.

Silo Repository allows for authorized parties to configure:\
\- **maxLoanToValue** (uint64) Loan-to-Value ratio represents the maximum borrowing power of a specific collateral.\
\- **liquidationThreshold** (uint64) The liquidation threshold represents the threshold at which a borrow position will be considered undercollateralized and subject to liquidation for each collateral.\
\- **interestRateModel** (address) The interest rate model address

## 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://devdocs.silo.finance/protocol-architecture/asset-configuration.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.
