The product uses derivatives to achieve this leverage, introduces daily rebalancing (which causes a compounding effect that can significantly alter returns over time), and carries a very high risk (risk indicator 7/7). There is no capital protection, and the product is not principal protected. The structure, risks, and payoff are not straightforward for retail investors with basic knowledge to understand, especially given the compounding effect and the potential for rapid loss of capital. The KID explicitly states that the product is not simple and may be difficult to understand, and it is intended for investors who can monitor their investment frequently and understand the risks of leveraged products. These featuresu2014leverage, derivative use, daily rebalancing, compounding, high risk, lack of capital protection, and non-UCITS statusu2014collectively make this ETP complex under MiFID II Article 57 criteria, as it does not meet the conditions for non-complex classification (e.g., no frequent opportunities to realize at a known price without excess liability, and the structure is not easily understood by the average retail client)."
