    "supporting_data": "The GraniteShares 3x Short Alphabet Daily ETP is classified as complex under MiFID II due to multiple factors: (1) It uses synthetic replication via a swap agreement with Natixis, introducing counterparty risk; (2) It provides 3x inverse daily leverage, which is inherently complex due to daily rebalancing and compounding effects; (3) The product is explicitly stated to be unsuitable for retail investors without specific knowledge of leveraged products; (4) The risk profile is classified as 7/7, the highest level, indicating very high risk; (5) The product's performance deviates significantly from the underlying asset over periods longer than one day due to the leverage reset mechanism. The PRIIPs KID and factsheet confirm these characteristics, with explicit warnings about the complexity of leveraged products and the need for daily monitoring. The use of derivatives is not merely for efficient portfolio management but is fundamental to the product's strategy, making it complex under MiFID II.",
