    "classification": "complex",
    "supporting_data": "The ETF uses synthetic replication through OTC total return swaps with counterparties such as Morgan Stanley and Societe Generale, exposing investors to counterparty risk. The fund targets a daily 2x inverse exposure to the MSCI USA Index, explicitly employing leverage and inverse strategies, which are complexity triggers under MiFID II. The risk indicator is high (6/7), reflecting the amplified risk profile. The fund invests at least 75% in equities eligible for the French Equity Savings Plan but achieves its objective primarily via derivatives, not physical replication. The PRIIPs KID confirms the use of total return swaps as integral to the strategy, not merely for risk management. The factsheet confirms synthetic replication and counterparty exposure limits (max 10%). The complexity is further increased by the leveraged inverse daily reset nature of the index, which can cause path dependency and tracking error over periods longer than one day. No capital protection or structured features are present, but the leverage, synthetic replication, and counterparty risk clearly classify this ETF as complex under MiFID II."
