description

Monitor recent news for companies, summarizing headlines with sources and flagging insolvency risk signals. Use this skill whenever the user asks to check news for a bank, financial institution, robo-advisor, fintech company, or corporation - including phrases like "news check", "news scan", "insolvency check", "credit risk news", "what's happening with [company name]", or "monitor [company name]". Also trigger when the user provides a list of commercial organizations and wants a news roundup, risk scan, or media summary for any of them. The user will supply one or more institution names as arguments.

Company News Monitor

Produce a structured news briefing for one or more commpanies, with special attention to insolvency or credit-risk signals.

Input

The user provides one or more company names. Examples:

• "Check news for JPMorgan Chase"
• "News scan: Google, Amazon, Meta, Apple"
• "Any insolvency signals for Oracle lately?"

Procedure

For each company supplied by the user, carry out the following steps:

1. Search for recent news

Run at least two web searches per company to get good coverage. Use queries like:

• "<company name>" news <current year> (include the year so results are fresh)
• "<company name>" financial risk OR insolvency OR downgrade <current year>

Because the user typically cares about the last 7 days, add a time-scoped qualifier when helpful (e.g. news today, news this week). Always verify that the articles you report actually fall within the requested window - discard anything older.

2. Fetch and verify sources

For every promising search hit, use web_fetch to open the article and confirm:

• The publication date (must be within the requested time window - default is the last 7 days).
• The headline and a short factual summary you can write in your own words.
• The source name and URL.

Do not rely solely on search-result snippets; fetch the page to get accurate dates and details.

3. Compile the briefing

Present results grouped by company under a clear heading. For each news item, include:

• Headline - the article's actual headline (or a close paraphrase if needed for brevity).
• Summary - 1–2 sentences in your own words.
• Source, link & date - e.g. Reuters - https://… - 2026-03-25

4. Flag insolvency / credit-risk signals

After the bullet list for each company, add a short Risk assessment line:

• If any article suggests the company may be heading toward financial distress (e.g. credit-rating downgrade, liquidity concerns, regulatory intervention, major lawsuit threatening solvency, bank run, large unexpected losses), flag it clearly with a ⚠️ marker and a brief explanation.
• If nothing concerning was found, state: "No insolvency-related signals identified in this period."

Output format

## <Company Name>

- **<Headline>**
  <Short summary in your own words.>
  *<Source> - <URL> - <YYYY-MM-DD>*

- **<Headline>**
  <Short summary.>
  *<Source> - <URL> - <YYYY-MM-DD>*

**Risk assessment:** <assessment or "No insolvency-related signals identified in this period.">

---

Repeat the block above for every company the user listed.

Important reminders

• If no news is found for an company within the time window, say so explicitly - do not fabricate entries.
• Prioritize high-quality sources (major financial news outlets, the company's own press releases, regulatory body announcements) over blogs or forums.
• The default look-back window is 7 days. If the user specifies a different window, honour it.
• When the user supplies multiple companies in a single request, process all of them in one response.
