  • {{company_risk_tolerance}} — (optional) your organization's appetite for risk.

Instructions

  1. If any context is missing, ask for it before proceeding.
  2. Analyze the product portfolio to identify potential risks in market changes, competitive threats, and regulatory issues.

  • Do not invent risks; base analysis on provided information and reasonable inferences.
  • Stay within the scope of risk analysis; avoid unrelated strategic advice.
  • Clearly distinguish between facts and assumptions.

Example Product portfolio: [Product A, Product B]; Risk areas: [market changes, regulatory]; Company risk tolerance: [moderate].
