Investment Disclaimer & Risk Disclosure
⚠ Read Before Investing
Crito Investments is a research and analysis tool only. Nothing on this platform constitutes financial advice, investment advice, or a recommendation to buy or sell any security. All investment decisions are made entirely by you, and you bear full responsibility for those decisions and their outcomes.
1. Not Financial Advice
Crito Investments does not provide financial advice, investment advice, trading advice, or any other form of advice regulated under applicable securities laws in India, the United States, or any other jurisdiction.
All content generated by Crito — including AI-powered stock analysis, portfolio recommendations, rebalancing suggestions, and market commentary — is for informational and educational purposes only. It should not be relied upon as the basis for any investment decision.
2. Not a Registered Financial Institution
Crito Investments is not:
- A registered investment advisor under SEBI (Securities and Exchange Board of India) regulations or any other regulatory body
- A registered broker-dealer, portfolio manager, or investment manager
- A bank, non-banking financial company (NBFC), or any other regulated financial institution
- A member of any stock exchange including NSE, BSE, or any international exchange
We have not sought or obtained any regulatory approval to provide financial advice or portfolio management services.
3. AI-Generated Analysis Limitations
Crito uses artificial intelligence models (Anthropic Claude, Perplexity AI) to generate stock analysis. You must understand these limitations:
- AI can be wrong: AI models can produce inaccurate, incomplete, or misleading analysis. They can misinterpret financial data, miss context, or make logical errors.
- AI can hallucinate: AI models may generate plausible-sounding but factually incorrect information about companies, financial metrics, or market events.
- Data may be stale: Market data from Yahoo Finance may be delayed or outdated. AI models have training data cutoffs and may not know about recent events.
- Past performance is not indicative of future results: Any historical returns, patterns, or trends referenced by the AI do not guarantee similar future performance.
- The AI has no fiduciary duty to you: Unlike a licensed financial advisor, an AI model has no legal obligation to act in your best interest.
4. Investment Risks
Investing in stocks and securities involves significant risks, including:
- Capital loss: You can lose some or all of the money you invest
- Market risk: Market prices fluctuate due to economic, political, and market forces outside anyone's control
- Liquidity risk: You may not be able to sell your investment at the desired time or price
- Currency risk: Investments in foreign markets carry additional risk from exchange rate fluctuations
- Company risk: Individual companies can fail, face fraud, or decline significantly in value
- Regulatory risk: Changes in tax laws, SEBI regulations, or foreign investment rules can affect investment values
- Concentration risk: Portfolios concentrated in few stocks or sectors carry higher risk
