    "supporting_data": "The product is a GraniteShares 3x Long Spotify Daily ETP, which seeks to replicate 3 times the daily performance of Spotify via a swap with Natixis as the swap provider. This swap-based synthetic replication introduces counterparty and collateral risk, which are difficult for retail investors to understand. The product uses significant leverage (3x daily), with daily reset causing compounding effects that can lead to returns deviating significantly from the underlying asset over periods longer than one day. The product is explicitly described as high risk (risk class 7/7), with potential for total loss of investment. The swap exposure is collateralized but still introduces complexity. The product is an ETP, not a UCITS ETF, and does not benefit from the UCITS non-complex presumption. According to MiFID II Article 254 and Delegated Regulation EU 2017/565 Article 57, synthetic replication with embedded swaps and leverage, especially with complex payoff profiles and counterparty risk, classifies the product as complex. The productu2019s structure and risks are not easily understood by retail investors with basic knowledge, triggering the need for an appropriateness assessment under MiFID II. Therefore, the classification is complex."
