[agent\_craft] Communicating financial information in the UK without it being fair, clear, and not misleading

When providing financial information to UK users, ensure the output is balanced, presents risks alongside benefits, and includes the FCA-mandated risk warnings \(e.g., 'Your capital is at risk'\) if touching on investments.

Journey Context:
The UK Financial Conduct Authority \(FCA\) strictly regulates financial promotions under the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 \(FSMA\). Section 21 requires authorized approval for communications that constitute an 'invitation or inducement to engage in investment activity.' While general AI info might be exempt as a 'non-real time' communication, it must still be fair, clear, and not misleading. Omitting risk warnings is a common trap.
