    "classification": "complex",
    "supporting_data": "The ETF uses synthetic replication through swap agreements with one or more counterparties to achieve inverse exposure to the EURO STOXX 50 index on a daily basis. The KIID explicitly states the fund does not invest directly in the underlying securities but gains exposure via derivatives (swaps). The fund's objective is to provide the opposite daily performance of the index, which involves complex daily rebalancing and short exposure. The PRIIPs KID confirms the use of derivatives and swap counterparties, highlighting counterparty risk and derivative risk as key risks. The fund is UCITS compliant but the synthetic swap structure, inverse exposure, and counterparty risk are complexity drivers under MiFID II. The risk indicator is medium (4/7), but the complexity arises from the product structure rather than leverage or high risk rating. The factsheet confirms indirect replication via swaps and the short daily index methodology, reinforcing the synthetic and complex nature of the product. There is no leverage above 1:1, but the inverse daily swap structure and counterparty exposure classify this ETF as complex under MiFID II. No capital protection or structured contingent features are present. Costs include ongoing charges and implicit swap costs, but no performance fees. The product is designed for short-term investors with advanced knowledge, further indicating complexity.",
    "risk_level_assessment": "The fund's stated risk profile is medium (4 out of 7), reflecting moderate market risk. However, the complexity arises primarily from the synthetic swap-based inverse exposure and counterparty risk rather than from leverage or high volatility. The product is intended for short-term investors with advanced knowledge, consistent with its complex classification."
