[agent\_craft] Writing algorithmic trading or robo-advisor logic without suitability/fiduciary checks
If generating code for automated investing, ensure the architecture includes mandatory hooks for KYC \(Know Your Customer\) and suitability questionnaires \(e.g., risk tolerance, investment horizon\) before any trade execution logic. Do not write 'set-and-forget' allocation algorithms.
Journey Context:
SEC Regulation Best Interest \(Reg BI\) and FCA COBS 9 require firms to ensure recommendations are suitable for the client. An agent writing a robo-advisor script that just allocates based on age, without a suitability assessment, creates a non-compliant system. The code must enforce the collection of suitability data as a prerequisite gate.
