        "supporting_data": "The UBS (Irl) Fund Solutions plc - MSCI USA SF UCITS ETF is classified as complex primarily due to its synthetic replication method. The Key Investor Information (KII) document explicitly states that the Fund 'invests in financial derivative instruments ('FDIs')' and that 'the performance of the Index is swapped from UBS to the Fund'. This indicates the use of total return swaps as an integral part of its investment strategy to track the MSCI USA Index, rather than holding the underlying securities directly (physical replication). According to the provided MiFID II complexity assessment rules, an ETF is considered 'complex if derivatives are integral to achieving its investment objective, such as using swaps or futures to replicate the index's performance.' This introduces risks like counterparty risk (explicitly listed as a 'material risk' in the KII, stating 'The failure of UBS to perform under the terms of the FDIs could significantly affect the Fund'), which are difficult for retail investors with basic knowledge to understand. The MiFID II rules also state that 'Synthetic replication uses derivatives (e.g., total return swaps) to replicate the index's performance without holding the underlying securities. This introduces opacity... and risks (counterparty, collateral), making it complex.' Furthermore, the specific instruction provided dictates that 'If any element of Contingent Bonds or any Swap usage is identified then the 'classification' must be 'complex'.' The explicit mention of swap usage in the KII directly triggers this classification. While the Fund is UCITS compliant (generally presumed non-complex) and tracks a transparent index (MSCI USA Index), these elements are overridden by the inherent complexity introduced by the synthetic replication method and the integral use of swaps and associated counterparty risk, which require advanced financial understanding for retail investors, as highlighted by CESR/09-295 (paragraph 7, 34, 90, 91)."
