- Keep prompts specific to your bank’s balance sheet and funding structure to improve relevance.
- Ask for outputs in both narrative and tabular form to support presentations and regulatory filing.
- Incorporate data lineage and assumptions documentation to enhance auditability and governance.
- Use scenario prompts regularly to stress test liquidity and validate contingency plans.
- Review and rotate prompts periodically to align with evolving market conditions and regulatory expectations.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Using generic prompts that lack bank-specific balance sheet details and funding sources.
- Neglecting data quality checks or lineage, leading to unreliable forecasts.
- Omitting regulatory buffers or reporting requirements in the cash flow outputs.
- Forgetting to request multiple horizon views (7-day, 30-day, 12-month) for comprehensive planning.
- Failing to document assumptions and data sources, making outputs hard to audit.
