# Flash Loans

**What are flash loans?**&#x20;

Flash loans allow you to borrow any available amount of assets from a Moola Market liquidity pool without putting up any collateral as long as the liquidity borrowed plus a flash loan fee is returned to the pool within the same block. This feature is primarily intended for developers because of the technical knowledge required to execute them.

**How much is the flash loan fee?**&#x20;

The flash loan fee is currently 1 basis points (0.01%) and can be adjusted via governance.

**Why would someone use a flash loan?**&#x20;

Flash loans allow you to temporarily access large amounts of capital. There are many use cases where this can be helpful such as;

* Liquidation hedging (e.g. set a minimum Health Factor and auto wind down a debt)
* Arbitrage trading price differences between exchanges like [Ubeswap](https://app.ubeswap.org) and Mento
* Swapping collateral w/o having to close your debt position&#x20;
* Debt refinancing&#x20;
* And much more...
