    "supporting_data": "The WisdomTree Short EUR Long USD product is an Exchange Traded Product (ETP) structured as a Jersey law governed, collateralised debt security that provides inverse exposure to EUR relative to USD. It tracks the MSFXSM Short Euro Total Return Index via synthetic replication using unfunded swap agreements with Morgan Stanley as the index provider and swap counterparties. The product explicitly uses FX forward contracts and total return swaps, with collateral held at The Bank of New York Mellon to mitigate counterparty risk. The replication method is synthetic, not physical, and the product is not UCITS compliant. The product carries counterparty risk, liquidity risk, and currency risk, with a risk rating of 3/7, but the complexity arises primarily from the use of derivatives (swaps), the inverse exposure to FX, and the synthetic structure. The product is described as 'not simple and may be difficult to understand' and requires specific investor knowledge. The PRIIPs KID and factsheet confirm the use of unfunded swaps and collateral arrangements, and the product is structured as a debt security rather than an ETF, which adds to complexity. There is no leverage above 1:1, but the inverse exposure and synthetic swap structure are key complexity drivers. The product also involves roll costs and potential tracking error due to the nature of FX forwards and collateral yield adjustments. These factors combined meet MiFID II criteria for classification as a complex financial instrument."
