Prompt Like a Banker

Write one safe, review-ready AI prompt without crossing the data line. Preview the method here, then build the working prompt in your Toolbox.

The 5-line banker prompt
  1. You are helping a [ROLE].
  2. Use only [SOURCE].
  3. Create [OUTPUT FORMAT].
  4. Do not invent facts, make decisions, expose data, or add unsupported claims.
  5. Mark uncertain items as [VERIFY]. Label the output as draft for [REVIEWER].

Choose the work

Draft, summarize, rewrite, extract, compare, or checklist.

Protect the data

Use placeholders like [CUSTOMER], [ACCOUNT_NUMBER], [AMOUNT], and [VERIFY].

Review before use

AI drafts. A qualified human checks before the output is used.

Fastest way to learn

Unsafe versus safe.

Unsafe

Summarize a named customer's account issue and draft a response about why a debit card transaction was denied.

Safe

Using only the redacted facts below, draft a customer-service response template. Do not include account numbers, balances, transaction details, fraud conclusions, eligibility decisions, or promises. Mark missing facts as [VERIFY]. Label the output as draft pending banker review.
