    "supporting_data": "The iShares MSCI Japan SRI UCITS ETF uses physical replication to track its index, which is a non-complex indicator. While it employs financial derivative instruments (FDIs) for currency hedging purposes, this is for efficient portfolio management (EPM) rather than as a core part of the investment strategy. The KIID explicitly states that derivatives are used for hedging, not for leverage or speculative purposes. The fund has a straightforward investment objective of tracking an ESG-focused Japanese equity index, with no leverage or inverse exposure. The risk profile is rated 6 out of 7, but this is primarily due to the concentration risk in Japanese equities and ESG factors rather than structural complexity. The fund is UCITS-compliant, which imposes additional investor protection requirements. The counterparty risk mentioned is related to hedging activities, which is a standard risk disclosure for funds using derivatives for hedging. The fund's methodology is clearly explained, and the underlying assets are liquid Japanese equities. While the use of derivatives for hedging could be considered a complexity factor, under MiFID II guidelines, this usage is typically not sufficient to classify the fund as complex when the derivatives are used solely for hedging purposes and the overall structure remains transparent and understandable to retail investors.",
    "confidence": 90,
    "counter_argument": "Some might argue that the use of derivatives for currency hedging could make this fund complex. However, under MiFID II, when derivatives are used solely for efficient portfolio management (like currency hedging) and not as a primary investment strategy, the fund can still be classified as non-complex. The key is that the derivatives are not used to create leverage or synthetic exposure, but rather to manage currency risk in a transparent manner.",
    "risk_level": "The fund's risk level is rated 6 out of 7, which is relatively high, but this is due to the concentration in Japanese equities and ESG factors rather than structural complexity. The risk is primarily market risk rather than complexity-related risk."
