Mandatory risk warnings are legally required statements that inform consumers about the potential hazards associated with a product, service, or investment. These disclaimers aim to ensure individuals are fully aware of the financial or other risks involved before making decisions. They typically highlight factors such as price volatility, potential for capital loss, or the absence of regulatory protections. Such warnings are a key component of consumer protection regulations.
