    "supporting_data": "The ETF is a UCITS-compliant bond ETF that physically invests in a portfolio of fixed income securities that make up the Bloomberg MSCI US Corporate High Yield ESG SRI Bond Index or similar securities. The KIID and PRIIPs KID explicitly state the use of 'optimising techniques' which may include financial derivative instruments (FDIs) for direct investment purposes, but this is for efficient portfolio management rather than inherent synthetic replication. There is no mention of swap agreements, total return swaps, or synthetic replication structures. The fund does not employ leverage, inverse or amplified exposure. The risk rating is moderate (4 in KIID, 3 in PRIIPs), consistent with sub-investment grade bond risk but not indicative of complexity. The fund invests in a large number of underlying bonds (over 1,100 holdings), all physical securities, with no complex structured products or contingent convertible bonds. Counterparty risk is disclosed but relates to standard operational risks (e.g. safekeeping, derivatives used for risk management) rather than synthetic exposure. Costs are straightforward with a TER of 0.25%, no performance fees, and no swap or derivative fees. The monthly factsheet confirms physical replication via sampled methodology and no synthetic or swap-based replication. There is no capital protection or structured feature. The PRIIPs KID does not carry any comprehension warnings or complexity flags. Overall, the ETF exhibits a straightforward, physical bond index tracking strategy with minimal derivative use for portfolio management, no leverage, and no synthetic replication, thus it is classified as non-complex under MiFID II."
