        "supporting_data": "The ETF aims to replicate the MSCI EMU Index through physical holding of equity securities. While it uses financial derivative instruments (FDIs), specifically FX forward contracts, for currency hedging purposes to reduce the effect of exchange rate fluctuations between the fund's base currency (Euro) and the share class currency (Mexican Peso), this use is for efficient portfolio management rather than as an integral part of achieving the investment objective. MiFID II and ESMA guidelines generally consider derivative use for EPM, particularly currency hedging, with limited impact on the risk-return profile, as not automatically triggering a 'complex' classification, provided the risks are manageable and understood. The ETF tracks a standard equity index (MSCI EMU), which is transparent. The primary use of derivatives here is for currency hedging, which is a common and generally understood practice for UCITS ETFs with multiple currency share classes. The KIID indicates a risk category of six, but this relates to market volatility of equities rather than structural complexity. There's no mention of leverage, embedded derivatives, or complex underlying assets that would make the structure difficult for a retail investor to understand. The use of FX forwards for hedging is a common practice and does not fundamentally alter the straightforward nature of tracking an equity index.",
        "explanation": "The ETF is classified as non-complex. Although it utilizes financial derivative instruments (FDIs) for currency hedging purposes (FX forward contracts), this is considered a form of efficient portfolio management (EPM) and not integral to the investment objective of tracking the MSCI EMU Index. MiFID II and related guidance allow for derivative use in EPM, such as currency hedging, without automatically classifying an instrument as complex, provided these derivatives have a limited impact on the risk-return profile and are understood by the target investor. The ETF's primary replication method is physical, holding the underlying equity securities of the MSCI EMU Index, which is a transparent and standard approach. The complexity primarily arises from the currency hedging, which is a common feature for ETFs with multi-currency share classes and is generally considered understandable by retail investors, especially when disclosed clearly in the Key Investor Information Document (KIID). There is no indication of embedded derivatives, complex underlying assets or strategies that would make the ETF difficult for a retail investor to comprehend."
