    "supporting_data": "The WisdomTree S&P 500 5x Daily Leveraged product is a fully collateralised Exchange Traded Product (ETP) that provides 5 times daily leveraged exposure to the S&P 500 Futures Index via a fully collateralised swap structure. The product is not UCITS compliant, is structured as a debt security, and uses synthetic replication through swap agreements with collateral held at a custodian. The leverage factor of 5x and daily reset mechanism introduce compounding effects that make returns non-linear over periods longer than one day. The KIID and PRIIPs KID explicitly warn that the product is not simple, is intended for informed investors with specific knowledge, and carries the highest risk rating of 7 out of 7. The product exposes investors to counterparty risk from swap counterparties, despite collateralisation, and liquidity and currency risks. The product does not invest directly in physical securities but gains exposure through derivatives (futures and swaps). There is no capital protection or principal guarantee. The complexity is driven primarily by the use of leverage, synthetic replication via swaps, exposure to futures contracts, and the daily compounding and reset features. These factors combined mean the product is difficult for retail investors to understand and is classified as complex under MiFID II rules."
