        "classification": "complex",
        "supporting_data": "This UCITS ETF, despite the general presumption of non-complexity for UCITS funds, is classified as complex due to several key features. Firstly, it employs 'indirect replication' through 'over-the-counter total return swaps', making derivatives central to its investment objective, not merely for efficient portfolio management. As per the rules, if 'any Swap usage is identified then the 'classification' must be 'complex'.' Secondly, its investment objective is to track an 'Amundi CAC 40 Daily (-1x) Inverse' index, which incorporates a 'daily rebalancing' and a '(-1x) daily leverage effect'. The KID explicitly warns that 'over a period greater than one business day, due to the daily readjustment of the leverage in the Benchmark Index, the Fund's performance will not be equal to the inverse performance of the Parent Index and may even track a change in the same direction (and not inverse)'. This introduces significant path dependency and compounding effects that are inherently difficult for a retail investor with basic knowledge to understand, overriding the transparency of the underlying CAC 40 index. The KID also lists 'Counterparty risk' and 'Risk related to the use of derivative instruments' (including 'leverage risks') as particular risks, further contributing to its complex nature. ESMA guidelines (CESR/09-295, paragraph 7) state that 'all derivatives are assumed to be complex because their value is derived from another financial instrument or asset, adding a level of complexity to the understanding of the characteristics and valuation of those instruments', and (ESMA35-36-1640, page 9, footnote 12) indicate that 'structured UCITS' are excluded from automatic non-complexity, which applies to this ETF's daily rebalancing leveraged structure. Therefore, the combination of synthetic replication, integral derivative use, counterparty risk, and the non-intuitive daily rebalancing 'inverse leverage effect' makes this ETF complex."
