    "supporting_data": "The product is a Leverage Shares 3x Airbnb ETP Securities, which is a collateralised exchange traded security (ETP), not a UCITS ETF. It provides 3 times the daily performance of Airbnb equity, implying triple leverage and daily rebalancing. The product uses derivatives to achieve this leverage and synthetic exposure, as it tracks the iSTOXX Leveraged 3x ABNB Index. The use of leverage beyond UCITS limits, daily rebalancing causing compounding effects, and derivative exposure introduce complexity. The product is explicitly stated as not simple and difficult to understand, with a highest risk class (7/7) on the risk scale. It is intended for sophisticated investors able to monitor frequently and understand leveraged product risks. The structure involves collateral accounts and margining, indicating derivative and counterparty risk. According to MiFID II rules and ESMA guidance, such leveraged, synthetic, derivative-based products are classified as complex because: (1) leverage is significant and beyond UCITS limits; (2) derivatives are integral to the investment objective, not just for efficient portfolio management; (3) synthetic replication introduces counterparty and collateral risk; (4) the product's payoff and risk profile are difficult for retail investors with basic knowledge to understand; (5) the product has a high risk rating and explicit warnings about complexity and risk of total loss; (6) the product is not capital protected and involves compounding effects that complicate return understanding. Therefore, despite being an exchange traded product, it is not a UCITS ETF and is complex under MiFID II criteria, requiring appropriateness assessments for retail investors."
