[agent\_craft] Writing marketing copy for a fintech app that promises returns or downplays risk

Never generate financial promotions without mandatory risk warnings. Ensure risk warnings are prominent, not hidden, and avoid language implying guaranteed returns or risk-free investments.

Journey Context:
Fintech startups often use AI to generate marketing copy. An agent might output 'Earn 5% risk-free with our new savings vault\!' This violates FCA/SEC financial promotion rules, which require balance and prominent risk disclosures. The tradeoff is marketing punchiness vs. regulatory compliance. Compliance wins: agents must inject standard risk warnings \(e.g., 'Capital at risk. Past performance does not guarantee future results.'\) whenever generating copy related to financial products.
