    "classification": "complex",
    "supporting_data": "The ETF uses synthetic replication through swap agreements with one or more counterparties to achieve its investment objective, explicitly stated in both the KIID and PRIIPs KID. The fund does not invest directly in the underlying securities but gains exposure via derivatives, which is a key complexity indicator under MiFID II. There is explicit mention of counterparty risk, derivative risk, and conflicts of interest risk. The replication method is indirect (swap-based), confirmed by the factsheet. There is no leverage or inverse exposure, but the use of total return swaps and derivative contracts as a core part of the investment strategy classifies the fund as complex. The risk profile is medium-high (category 5 out of 7), reflecting the volatility of emerging markets and derivative usage. Costs include a relatively high ongoing charge (0.85% TER in KIID, 1.56% in PRIIPs KID), which may reflect swap fees and derivative management costs. The fund tracks an index of Indian equities, which are emerging market assets, adding to complexity due to political and economic risks. No capital protection or structured features are present. The PRIIPs KID does not include a comprehension warning but highlights derivative and counterparty risks. Overall, the synthetic replication via swaps and inherent counterparty risk drive the classification as complex under MiFID II, despite the absence of leverage or capital protection features."
