The caution comes amid growing concerns over complex fee structures and opaque terms that may leave customers vulnerable to unexpected costs. Authorities emphasize that transparency in pricing is essential to prevent exploitation and maintain fair competition. The statement underscores the need for stricter oversight to ensure financial products remain accessible and understandable for all.
