    "classification": "complex",
    "supporting_data": "The WisdomTree WTI Crude Oil - EUR Daily Hedged ETC is classified as complex due to its synthetic replication method using fully funded collateralised swaps, which introduces counterparty risk and requires understanding of derivative instruments. The product tracks a commodity futures index, which involves complexities such as roll costs, contango, and backwardation effects that may not be easily understood by retail investors. Additionally, the ETC is structured as a debt security rather than a traditional fund, adding another layer of complexity. The high risk rating (6 out of 7) and the presence of significant counterparty risk further support this classification. While the ETC does not use leverage or inverse strategies, the combination of synthetic replication, commodity futures exposure, and swap agreements makes it a complex product under MiFID II.",
    "confidence": 90,
    "counter_argument": "Some might argue that the ETC is UCITS eligible and fully collateralised, which could suggest lower complexity. However, the use of synthetic replication via swaps and the inherent complexities of commodity futures trading (including roll costs and potential contango/backwardation) outweigh these factors, making it a complex product under MiFID II.",
