        "supporting_data": "The Xtrackers S&P 500 UCITS ETF is designed to reflect the performance of the S&P 500 Index. It uses physical replication by holding a substantial number of securities in the index. While it states it 'may employ techniques and instruments in order to manage risk, reduce costs and improve results' and 'may include the use of derivatives', the primary investment policy is physical replication. Crucially, it also mentions it will 'attempt to reduce the effect of exchange rate fluctuations between the currency of the fund's assets and the currency of your shares.' This indicates the use of derivatives, likely for currency hedging and potentially for efficient portfolio management (EPM) to manage inflows/outflows or reduce transaction costs. According to MiFID II guidelines, derivatives used for EPM and currency hedging are generally considered non-complex if their use is limited and has minimal impact on the risk-return profile, and they are not integral to achieving the investment objective. The document does not suggest the derivatives are integral to the strategy or introduce significant counterparty or collateral risks. The index itself is a well-known equity index, generally considered transparent. The risk profile is categorized as 6 out of 7, indicating high volatility, but this relates to market risk rather than structural complexity. There is no mention of leverage or embedded derivatives. Therefore, based on the provided information, the ETF is presumed non-complex due to its UCITS status and physical replication, with derivative use being for EPM/hedging, which is typically permissible for non-complex instruments."
