of 5— Gather your reporting data
What you'll accomplish
By the end of this guide, you'll have a repeatable process for writing your recurring risk reports — quarterly risk committee narratives, board risk summaries, KRI commentary — in 20–30 minutes instead of 3–5 hours. Claude handles the prose; you handle the accuracy check.
What you'll need
- Claude account at {{tool:Claude.url}} — free tier works for short reports; {{tool:Claude.plan}} ({{tool:Claude.price}}/month) recommended for full-length reports and document uploads
- Your risk data for the reporting period (key metrics, incidents, KRI status, control findings)
- A copy of a prior period's report to use as a style reference (optional but helpful)
- Time needed: 20 minutes setup; 20–30 minutes per report cycle after that
- Cost: Free / {{tool:Claude.price}}/month
How-To Guide: Write Risk Reports Faster with Claude
Step 1: Gather your reporting data
Before opening Claude, pull together what you need:
- Key risk metrics for the period (current values, prior period comparison, targets/thresholds)
- Notable events: new risks identified, incidents, KRI breaches, regulatory findings
- Control assessment results: any significant findings or improvements
- Upcoming concerns or forward-looking items
You don't need to write anything — just collect your data in bullet points.
