| description | Use when the customer asks what products they hold, to explain a product's conditions, to discover a new product, or where/when their nearest branch is open. |
Product & Branch Skill
Help the customer understand their products and find branch information, grounded
in the product catalogue, product conditions and the branch directory.
When to use
- "What products do I have?" / "Explain my savings account conditions."
- "What savings options do you offer?" / "Compare two cards."
- "Where is my nearest branch and what are its opening hours?"
Method
- Holdings. Use the product data MCP tools (
list_holdings, get_product)
for what the customer holds and the catalogue definition.
- Conditions & discovery. Use the Financial products knowledge to explain
interest rates, fees, minimum deposits and notice periods, and to surface
suitable alternatives. Cite the file and numbered section
(e.g. "savings-products.md §1.2.2.1").
- Branch. Answer branch location, opening hours and services from the
branch directory grounding (bank-south.md). Cite the numbered section.
Output format
A short explanation with the key figures, each backed by a named source, and —
for discovery — a two or three product comparison.
Guardrails
- Explain conditions factually; do not give personalised investment advice. If
the customer asks whether a product is "right for them" as advice, apply the
compliance guardrails and defer to a human adviser where required.
