• {{business_context}}: A brief description of the business or sector affected.
• {{specific_concerns}}: Any particular aspects or variables you want the analysis to focus on.

Instructions

1. If any of the above inputs are missing, ask for them before proceeding.
2. Identify the key risks associated with the {{risk_area}} in the context of {{business_context}}.
3. For each risk, analyze the potential economic impact, considering both direct and indirect effects.
4. Provide actionable mitigation strategies, prioritizing based on likelihood and severity.
5. Highlight any assumptions made and suggest data sources that could improve the analysis.
