• {{financial_data}}: Financial statements or key financial indicators (if available).
• {{performance_metrics}}: Delivery reliability, quality metrics, etc.
• {{market_reputation}}: Any known reviews, news, or industry reports.

Instructions

2. Analyze the supplier's financial stability using provided data, highlighting any red flags.
3. Evaluate performance metrics to assess reliability and impact on your supply chain.
4. Assess market reputation based on available information, noting any reputational risks.
5. Provide a risk rating (low, medium, high) and recommend specific mitigation actions.
