    "supporting_data": "The Leverage Shares -3x Short South Korea ETP is classified as complex due to its -3x inverse leverage, which introduces significant risks and complexities. The product aims to provide -3 times the daily performance of the iShares MSCI South Korea ETF, which involves daily rebalancing and compounding effects that can lead to unexpected returns over longer holding periods. The high risk profile (rated 7 out of 7) and the need for sophisticated investors who understand leverage and daily rebalancing further support this classification. Additionally, the product's structure, while using physical replication, involves short positions and cash balances that require active management and understanding of market dynamics.",
    "confidence": 95,

    "comprehension_warning": true,
    "counter_argument": "Some might argue that the product uses physical replication and does not explicitly mention derivatives or swaps, suggesting it could be non-complex. However, the inverse leverage and the compounding effect introduce complexities that require specialist knowledge, making it unsuitable for retail investors without such expertise.",
    "final_decision": "The product is classified as complex due to its inverse leverage, high risk profile, and the compounding effect, which are not easily understood by retail investors. The need for sophisticated investors and the high risk rating further justify this classification."
