### Auditing financial transactions
A corporate finance team is auditing cross-border payments. They prompt their agent to pull data for specific dates, asking: 'What was the exchange rate between EUR and JPY on this date?' The MCP provides historical valuation context.

### Pricing goods for export
An exporter must quote a final price in local currency (e.g., CAD) based on their Euro costs. They ask: 'What is the latest rate to convert 500 EUR into Canadian Dollars?' The MCP gives them the precise, current figure needed for the contract.
