    "classification": "complex",
    "supporting_data": "The product is a collateralised exchange traded security (ETP) aiming to deliver -3 times the daily performance of the Financial Select Sector SPDR Fund, indicating significant leverage and inverse exposure. It uses derivatives (swaps) as an integral part of its investment strategy to achieve synthetic replication of the reference asset's performance. The product explicitly warns that holding it for more than one day leads to returns diverging from -3x the reference asset due to compounding effects, which are complex and difficult for retail investors to understand. The risk indicator is at the highest level (7/7), reflecting very high risk. The structure involves collateral accounts and securities lending, introducing counterparty and collateral risks. There is no capital protection, and the product is intended for sophisticated investors with the ability to monitor frequently and understand complex risks. According to MiFID II Article 25(4)(a)(vi) and Article 57 criteria, such use of derivatives integral to the strategy, leverage, synthetic replication, and complex payoff profiles render the product complex. UCITS ETFs are generally non-complex, but this product's features override the baseline presumption. Therefore, it requires an appropriateness assessment under MiFID II and is classified as complex."
