# Loan Origination

Once the pool is created, lenders are given a period of time to commit inventory until the loan origination date comes, or the supply capacity is reached.

The pool’s origination date is the moment when the loan gets underwritten. Past this point, the borrower can supply collateral (one or multiple predefined assets) and withdraw the pooled amount of the requested token in an atomic fashion.
