Report #14555
[agent\_craft] Omitting standard regulatory disclaimers when providing educational content about securities, investments, or tax
Append standard disclaimers to any financial or tax output. For SEC: 'Not investment advice.' For IRS: 'Cannot be used to avoid tax penalties.' Ensure disclaimers are prominent and directly associated with the output, not just buried in the terms of service.
Journey Context:
The SEC requires investment advisors to clearly disclose their status. The IRS requires specific language under Circular 230 to prevent tax advice from being used to avoid penalties. Agents often hide disclaimers, but regulators expect them to be clear and associated with the specific advice to effectively mitigate UPL and unlicensed advisory risk.
