    "supporting_data": "The product is a leveraged ETP providing 3 times the daily performance of AMD shares, achieved through synthetic replication using derivatives such as total return swaps. The use of derivatives is integral to the investment objective, not merely for efficient portfolio management, introducing counterparty and collateral risks. The product exhibits a compounding effect due to daily leverage rebalancing, which can cause returns over longer holding periods to deviate significantly from 3x the underlying asset's return. It carries a highest risk class (7/7) and is intended for sophisticated investors with a very short holding period (recommended 1 day). There is no capital protection, and the product is collateralised but subject to liquidity and counterparty risk. According to MiFID II rules and ESMA guidance, such featuresu2014significant leverage, synthetic replication, embedded derivatives, and complex payoff profilesu2014classify the product as complex. UCITS ETFs are generally non-complex, but this product is an Exchange Traded Product (ETP) with leveraged and synthetic features, thus outside the automatic non-complex UCITS presumption. The productu2019s structure and risks are not easily understood by retail investors with basic knowledge, requiring an appropriateness assessment under MiFID II. This aligns with regulatory interpretations that any product embedding derivatives integral to the strategy, especially leveraged synthetic products, are complex. Therefore, the classification is complex."
