Avast Secure Browser asks about the bank mode while on Google Search, is it wanted or a bug/error/mistake on one of the two sides?

"
Financial data may be visible to other users.
Open in bank mode
"
Why did the message appear during normal Google searches (in this case I was searching English wiktionary translations, nothing related to financial data) and only since the middle of this morning?
Is it due to one of Google’s recent changes to its websites (including YouTube) or due to a browser mistake?

This is the first the that it happens to me, so I do not know if it is a bug of the browser, a change in Google sites’ side settings, or something usual that simply I didn’t notice before.

(The Google Search searches are not related to financial data, in any case I pressed on the button to disable the message for that site)

I’ve seen this as well. Not all the time. I just ignored it so far.
