        "supporting_data": "The GraniteShares 3x Short Palantir Daily ETP Securities is classified as complex. Firstly, it is identified as an 'Exchange Traded Product (ETP) Securities' and does not state that it is UCITS compliant, therefore the presumption of non-complexity for UCITS ETFs does not apply. The product's objective to replicate '-3 times the daily performance' of its underlying asset explicitly involves significant leverage (3x) and inverse exposure. This strategy inherently introduces complexity that is beyond the understanding of a retail investor with basic knowledge, particularly due to the 'compounding effect' of the daily reset, which means returns over periods longer than one day will significantly deviate from the simple leveraged return of the underlying asset. The ETP employs synthetic replication by being 'backed by a swap with Natixis', which is integral to achieving its investment objective. According to the MiFID II rules provided, any use of swaps as an inherent element of the strategy, rather than solely for efficient portfolio management, or any identification of swap usage, automatically triggers a 'complex' classification. The KID explicitly states that the product is intended for retail investors who 'have specific knowledge or experience of investing in similar products and in financial markets, and have the ability to understand the product and its risks and rewards', which is a clear indicator that it is not suitable for a basic retail investor. Furthermore, the KID contains the mandatory comprehension alert: 'You are about to purchase a product that is not simple and may be difficult to understand', a requirement for products deemed complex under MiFID II. The product's risk indicator is also rated 7 out of 7, the highest risk class, reflecting the very high potential for losses stemming from its complex structure and associated market conditions. The ESMA guidance (CESR/09-295, Section 4, paragraph 90) also clarifies that instruments falling under derivative contracts (like swaps) are inherently complex and do not satisfy the criteria for being non-complex."
