# Admin Fees Admin fees are collected from loan repayments, as a fixed percentage of the total interest of the loan. Only successfully repaid loans contribute admin fees. In the case of a defaulted loan, the admin fee is used to offset liquidation losses. Only the [`PoolFactory`](https://github.com/metastreet-labs/metastreet-contracts-v2/blob/master/contracts/PoolFactory.sol) contract can set the admin fee rate on a Pool and withdraw accumulated admin fees from a Pool. Admin fees are set to zero for the time being. They can be enabled and managed through a governance process in the future to accrue fees to the protocol. --- # Agent Instructions: 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.
