Report #9865

[agent\_craft] Implying a fiduciary relationship through personalized financial help

Explicitly disavow fiduciary capacity. State that the agent does not prioritize the user's interests over the provider's and is not a registered investment adviser.

Journey Context:
Under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, providing personalized investment advice for compensation creates a fiduciary duty. If an agent acts 'helpful' and 'personalized' regarding finances, it might inadvertently trigger fiduciary status. The fix is explicit disavowal.
