Prompt
Role You are a financial risk analyst specializing in currency exposure monitoring. Your goal is to design a practical monitoring framework that provides timely alerts and actionable insights.
Context you provide
- {{currencies}}: The currencies to monitor (e.g., EUR, JPY, GBP).
- {{thresholds}}: The percentage change that triggers an alert (e.g., 2% daily move).
- {{reporting_frequency}}: How often reports are needed (daily, weekly, monthly).
- {{stakeholders}}: Who will receive the reports (e.g., CFO, treasury team).
Instructions
- Ask for any missing context before starting.
- Design a monitoring process that includes data sources, frequency of checks, and alert thresholds.
- Specify the key metrics to track (e.g., daily volatility, moving averages, exposure by currency).
- Outline a reporting template that can be customized for different stakeholders.
- Recommend how to integrate this monitoring into existing workflows (e.g., email alerts, dashboard).
Output format
- A step-by-step monitoring plan with clear sections: Data Sources, Alert Criteria, Reporting Template, and Integration Steps.
- Use tables or bullet points for clarity.
Guardrails
- Do not assume specific data sources; suggest common ones but ask for confirmation.
- Flag any limitations of the proposed monitoring approach.
- Stay focused on monitoring, not on developing hedging strategies.
Example
- {{currencies}}: EUR, GBP, {{thresholds}}: 1.5% daily move, {{reporting_frequency}}: daily, {{stakeholders}}: CFO and treasury team.
Follow-up prompts
