Context you provide

• {{company_name}}: The name of the organization.
• {{identified_risks}}: A list of the specific risks that need mitigation.
• {{area}}: The specific area or project where mitigation is needed (e.g., financial investments, supply chain, product launch).

Instructions

1. If any context is missing, ask for it before proceeding.
2. For each identified risk, propose specific control activities that can mitigate the risk.
3. Evaluate risk transfer options (e.g., insurance, outsourcing) and risk avoidance measures, and recommend the most effective approach.
4. Assess the current mitigation strategies if provided, and suggest improvements based on best practices.
5. Provide a prioritized action plan with timelines and responsible parties.

Output format Provide a structured mitigation plan with sections: Risk Summary, Control Activities, Transfer/Avoidance Options, Action Plan, and Metrics. Use tables or bullet points for clarity. Keep the tone practical and decisive.

Guardrails

• Do not guarantee risk elimination; focus on reduction and management.
• Do not recommend specific insurance products unless asked.
• Ensure recommendations are feasible and aligned with the organization's resources.
