    "supporting_data": "The Amundi Dow Jones Industrial Average UCITS ETF is a UCITS-compliant ETF that tracks the Dow Jones Industrial Average Net Total Return Index. The fund uses indirect replication via one or more OTC swaps (financial derivative instruments) to achieve its investment objective, as explicitly stated in the KIID and PRIIPs KID. The replication method is synthetic, confirmed by the factsheet. The fund invests in a diversified portfolio of international equities, but the performance is swapped for that of the benchmark index. There is explicit counterparty risk exposure due to the use of OTC swaps, with counterparties including Morgan Stanley Bank AG and Societe Generale, with counterparty exposure limited to 10% of total assets. The fund does not employ leverage or inverse exposure, and derivatives are used as an inherent part of the strategy (swaps), not merely for risk management, so 'derivatives' is marked false per instructions. The risk profile is medium-high (5 out of 7), reflecting market risk and derivative-related risks including counterparty risk and liquidity risk. Costs are straightforward with no performance fees, but the fund incurs swap-related costs inherent to synthetic replication. There are no capital protection or structured features. The underlying assets are liquid equities, and the benchmark is a well-known equity index without complex structured products. However, the use of synthetic replication via OTC swaps and the associated counterparty risk are key complexity drivers under MiFID II. The PRIIPs KID does not carry a specific comprehension warning but confirms the medium-high risk and counterparty risk. Therefore, despite the fund's straightforward equity exposure and no leverage, the synthetic replication and swap usage classify it as complex under MiFID II."
