            "The KID also mentions 'leverage risk' as a type of risk that the financial derivative instruments can induce.

        "classification": "complex",
        "supporting_data": "The Amundi US Treasury Bond 1-3Y UCITS ETF GBP Hedged Dist A is indeed a UCITS compliant fund, which typically benefits from a presumption of non-complexity due to its regulatory framework. It primarily employs a direct physical replication strategy (including sampling) to track the Bloomberg Barclays US Treasury 1-3 Year Index, which is a transparent index of government bonds. These aspects generally support a non-complex classification.However, the Sub-Fund explicitly states it uses a 'daily hedging strategy' to mitigate GBP currency risk, which involves 'financial derivative instruments'. While derivative use for Efficient Portfolio Management (EPM) like currency hedging can sometimes permit a non-complex classification, the strict instruction provided in the rules states: 'If any element of Contingent Convertible Bonds or any Swap usage is identified then the classification must be complex'. Currency hedging for ETFs commonly utilizes currency forwards or swaps. Therefore, the implied use of swaps or similar derivatives for this hedging strategy triggers the 'complex' classification.Furthermore, the KID highlights 'Counterparty risk' and 'Hedging risk' as 'Important risks' directly tied to these derivative instruments. Counterparty risk, in particular, is often cited by regulators (e.g., ESMA) as a factor contributing to complexity because it introduces risks beyond typical market fluctuations that are not easily understood by average retail investors. The mention of 'leverage risk' in connection with financial derivative instruments, even if not indicating a leveraged fund, further points to layers of risk understanding required beyond basic financial literacy."
