    "classification": "complex",
    "supporting_data": "The product is a Collateralised Exchange Traded Security (ETP) designed to provide 3x the daily return of the Invesco QQQ Trust (US Tech 100). It uses physical replication by directly owning the underlying Invesco QQQ Trust shares and employs margin borrowing to achieve 3x leverage. There is no use of swaps or derivative instruments as part of the replication strategy, and no synthetic replication is mentioned. However, the product is highly leveraged (3x), with daily rebalancing and compounding effects that can cause returns over periods longer than one day to deviate significantly from 3x the underlying index return. The risk indicator is at the highest level (7/7), indicating very high risk and complexity. The product is not UCITS compliant and is intended for sophisticated investors who understand leverage, daily rebalancing, and compounding risks. The product carries no capital protection and may result in total loss of investment. The complexity arises primarily from the leverage, daily compounding, margin borrowing, and the sophisticated risk profile rather than from derivative or swap usage. The PRIIPs KID and factsheet confirm no swap usage and physical ownership of underlying assets. The product\u2019s complexity is further highlighted by warnings about the need for daily monitoring and the potential for magnified losses. Therefore, under MiFID II, the product is classified as complex due to leverage and the nature of the investment strategy, despite the absence of derivatives or swaps."
