ConductAtlas Analysis

Why it matters (compliance & governance perspective)

The cap limits the maximum financial exposure of both parties regardless of the scale or severity of harm suffered, potentially leaving significant losses uncompensated.

Interpretive note: The excerpt references 'Related Party' liability being equally capped, which is noted in omitted_material. The canonical claim states the primary cap proposition only.
