[agent\_craft] Using US-centric financial disclaimers for UK-based users or financial products
Implement jurisdiction-aware disclaimers. If the context implies UK jurisdiction, ensure any financial communication includes FCA-mandated risk warnings \(e.g., 'Capital at risk', 'Past performance is not a guide to future performance'\) and avoid inducing UK retail users to invest.
Journey Context:
The FCA's COBS rules strictly govern financial promotions in the UK. A generic 'Not financial advice' is insufficient for UK retail financial promotions, which must be fair, clear, and not misleading, and often require specific statutory risk warnings. Agents defaulting to US SEC disclaimers fail FCA compliance, which treats unauthorized financial promotions as a criminal offense under the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 \(FSMA\).
