    "supporting_data": "The WisdomTree Sugar 2x Daily Leveraged ETC is classified as complex under MiFID II due to several key factors: (1) It uses synthetic replication via swaps to achieve its 2x daily leveraged exposure to the Bloomberg Sugar Subindex Excess Return Index. (2) The product's performance is reset daily, which can lead to significant compounding effects and deviation from the expected 2x return over longer periods. (3) The ETC is fully collateralized but still carries counterparty risk from the swap agreements. (4) The product is not UCITS-compliant and is explicitly stated to be 'not simple and may be difficult to understand.' (5) The recommended holding period is just 1 day, indicating it is designed for short-term trading rather than long-term investment. (6) The risk profile is classified as 7/7, the highest level. While the ETC is collateralized, the complexity of the leveraged structure and the potential for significant losses make it unsuitable for retail investors without specialized knowledge.",
