        "supporting_data": "The iShares Core MSCI Europe UCITS ETF is a UCITS ETF, which by its nature is presumed non-complex. The fund aims to replicate the MSCI Europe Index through physical replication, holding the underlying equity securities. While the KIID mentions the potential use of financial derivative instruments (FDIs) for efficient portfolio management, it clarifies that these are used to achieve the investment objective, implying they are integral to the strategy. However, the primary method of replication is physical. The index itself (MSCI Europe Index) is a broad market index composed of large and mid-cap companies in developed European equity markets, which is generally considered transparent and understandable. Securities lending is mentioned as a secondary activity to generate income, with a clear revenue sharing model, and it is stated that this does not increase the costs of running the fund. The risk indicator is 6, which reflects market risk rather than structural complexity. The use of FDIs, even if for EPM, can sometimes be a point of concern for complexity due to counterparty risk, as noted in the MiFID II nuances. However, the primary replication method is physical, and the index is straightforward. The KIID does not indicate any embedded derivatives, complex structures, or leverage beyond what is typical for EPM. Given the emphasis on physical replication of a standard equity index and the limited role of derivatives for EPM, the ETF is classified as non-complex. The ESMA guidelines, particularly CESR/09-295, confirm that UCITS are generally non-complex. While the use of 'optimising techniques' and 'financial derivative instruments (FDIs)' for direct investment purposes is mentioned, the core replication is physical. The KIID states the fund aims to invest 'so far as possible and practicable in the equity securities that make up the Index'. This suggests that derivatives are supplementary and not the primary driver of the ETF's performance. Therefore, despite the mention of FDIs, the overall structure aligns with a non-complex classification according to MiFID II rules, especially when compared to synthetic replication or ETFs with embedded derivatives. The KIID does not suggest any other factors that would render it complex, such as leveraged structures or highly complex underlying assets.",
