MITRE ATT&CK
T1566.002 Phishing: Spearphishing Attachment

The file is identified by ClamAV as 'Xls.Dropper.QbotDocu12020-9818439-0', strongly suggesting it functions as a dropper for the Qbot banking trojan. The presence of macro-related heuristics, though not explicitly detailed here, is typical for Qbot delivery via malicious Office documents. This indicates a spearphishing attachment attack pattern aimed at delivering a secondary payload.
