    "classification": "complex",
    "supporting_data": "The ETC is classified as complex primarily due to its structured nature as an exchange-traded commodity (ETC) with FX hedging, long-term maturity, and counterparty risk. While it uses physical silver as the underlying asset, the FX hedging mechanism introduces additional complexity. The risk indicator of 6/7 and the lack of principal protection further support this classification. The ETC is not UCITS-compliant, and the PRIIPs KID includes a comprehension warning, reinforcing its complexity under MiFID II. The fact that it is a debt instrument (not covered by deposit protection) and the potential for investors to receive zero in adverse market conditions also contribute to its complex classification.",
