    "supporting_data": "The ETF uses physical replication to track the Solactive ISS ESG Developed Markets Europe Net Zero Pathway Index, which consists of large and mid-cap equities in developed European markets. The KIID explicitly states that derivatives may be used for risk management, cost reduction, and efficiency purposes, but not as a core strategy. The risk profile is classified as category 6, which is high but not necessarily indicative of complexity under MiFID II. There are no mentions of leverage, inverse strategies, or synthetic replication. The ETF is UCITS-compliant, which generally aligns with non-complex classifications. The factsheet confirms direct replication and provides transparency on holdings and methodology.",
    "confidence": 95,
    "counter_argument": "The high risk category (6) and the use of derivatives for risk management could be seen as potential complexity indicators. However, the derivatives are used for efficient portfolio management rather than as a core strategy, and the ETF is physically replicated with transparent holdings. The UCITS compliance and straightforward index-tracking objective further support the non-complex classification.",
    "final_decision": "The ETF is classified as non-complex due to its physical replication, lack of leverage or inverse strategies, and the use of derivatives solely for risk management and efficiency purposes. The high risk category does not inherently indicate complexity under MiFID II, especially given the transparency and UCITS compliance."
