    "classification": "complex",
    "supporting_data": "The ETF uses an indirect replication method by entering into an over-the-counter total return swap contract to achieve its investment objective, as explicitly stated in both the KIID and PRIIPs KID. This synthetic replication involves derivative instruments integral to the strategy, not merely for risk management, which triggers complexity under MiFID II. The documents mention counterparty risk explicitly, indicating exposure to swap counterparty default risk. There is no leverage or inverse exposure, and the fund is UCITS compliant. The risk profile is medium-high (5/7), reflecting market and derivative risks. The underlying index is a broad European equity index focused on basic resources, composed of liquid equities, so underlying asset complexity is low. However, the synthetic swap structure and counterparty risk are sufficient to classify the ETF as complex under MiFID II. Costs are straightforward with no performance fees, but swap usage implies derivative costs. No capital protection or structured features are present. The PRIIPs KID does not include a comprehension warning but confirms derivative use and risk. Overall, the synthetic replication via total return swaps and counterparty risk exposure are the main drivers of complexity classification despite the fund's straightforward equity exposure and moderate risk profile."
