Report #55566

[agent\_craft] Agent applied a single generic 'Not financial advice' disclaimer assuming it covers all jurisdictions

Implement jurisdiction-aware disclaimers. If the user context indicates the UK, append FCA-specific warnings \(e.g., 'Past performance is not a reliable indicator of future results'\). If US, include SEC/State-specific language. Default to the strictest standard if jurisdiction is unknown.

Journey Context:
A generic 'Not financial advice' disclaimer holds little weight in regulated markets. The FCA \(UK\) requires specific, prominent warnings for retail clients regarding investment risks and past performance \(COBS 4\). The SEC requires clear disclosure of material risks. Agents often treat disclaimers as a checkbox, but regulators view them as substantive consumer protections. The right call is to dynamically adjust the disclaimer based on the user's inferred or stated jurisdiction.
