        "supporting_data": "The Fund is a UCITS ETF, which initially presumes non-complexity. However, this presumption is overturned due to several factors. Firstly, the Fund's investment policy states that 'FDIs may be used for direct investment purposes,' which goes beyond the limited use for efficient portfolio management (EPM) that typically allows for a non-complex classification. The MiFID II rules classify an ETF as complex if derivatives are integral to its objective or used for direct investment, introducing risks like counterparty risk. The Key Investor Information (KII) document explicitly lists 'Counterparty Risk' due to derivatives, which is a key indicator of complexity and difficult for retail investors to understand. Secondly, the Fund invests in underlying Fixed Income (FI) securities that include 'asset-backed, commercial mortgage-backed and mortgage-backed securities.' The ESMA guidelines (CESR/09-295, Section 2, paragraphs 48-50 and ANNEX I, point 2) clearly state that 'Asset Backed Securities (including e.g. mortgage-backed securities, CDOs) if they embed a derivative or are otherwise structured in a complex way' are 'ALWAYS COMPLEX' financial instruments. The KII also highlights that these instruments 'have high levels of borrowing and may not fully reflect the value of underlying assets,' indicating their inherent complexity and opacity. This direct investment in complex underlying assets is a primary driver of the ETF's complex classification, as their structure and risks (e.g., cash flow waterfalls, prepayment risk) are generally not understood by retail investors with basic knowledge.Finally, the Fund undertakes securities lending 'to reduce costs,' which, while common for UCITS, introduces additional counterparty risk, further contributing to the overall complexity of the product, even if not the sole determinant. While the replication method is described as 'optimising techniques' (implying physical replication), the significant use of derivatives for direct investment purposes and the inclusion of inherently complex asset-backed securities in its portfolio override the simplicity usually associated with physical replication."
