    "classification": "complex",
    "supporting_data": "The ETF uses indirect replication through OTC swap agreements (financial derivative instruments) to achieve its investment objective, explicitly stated in both the KIID and PRIIPs KID. The fund invests in a diversified portfolio of international equities but swaps the performance of these holdings for that of the benchmark index. The KIID and factsheet highlight counterparty risk with exposure limited to 10% per counterparty, confirming swap usage. The replication method is synthetic, not physical. There is no leverage or inverse exposure. The risk profile is medium-high (5/7), reflecting market and counterparty risks. Costs are straightforward with no performance fees but include swap-related costs implicitly. The PRIIPs KID does not carry a specific comprehension warning but the use of swaps and counterparty risk are clearly disclosed. The factsheet confirms the synthetic replication and counterparty risk with Morgan Stanley and Soci\u00e9t\u00e9 G\u00e9n\u00e9rale as counterparties. The underlying index is a standard equity index of 50 large global companies, which is not complex per se, but the synthetic replication and swap usage introduce complexity under MiFID II. Therefore, despite a straightforward equity index and no leverage, the presence of synthetic replication via swaps and counterparty risk mandates classification as complex under MiFID II rules.",
    "risk_level_assessment": "The fund's stated risk profile is medium-high (5 out of 7), primarily reflecting equity market risk and counterparty risk from swap usage. This aligns with the complexity classification, as the synthetic replication and counterparty exposure increase risk beyond a simple physical ETF."
