    "supporting_data": "The ETF primarily uses physical replication to track the ICE U.S. Treasury Inflation Linked Bond Index 0-5 Years. While it employs financial derivative instruments (FDIs) for currency hedging and optimisation purposes, these are used for efficient portfolio management rather than as a core investment strategy. The fund does not exhibit leverage, inverse exposure, or synthetic replication. The underlying assets are straightforward US Treasury Inflation-Protected Securities (TIPS) with clear credit quality and maturity profiles. The risk profile is moderate (rated 3), and the derivative usage is limited to hedging and optimisation, which are common practices in UCITS-compliant funds. The fund's methodology is sampled but remains transparent and understandable for retail investors.",
    "confidence": 90,
    "counter_argument": "Some might argue that the use of derivatives for hedging and optimisation could introduce complexity. However, under MiFID II, such usage is generally considered non-complex when it is clearly disclosed, limited to risk management, and does not materially alter the fund's risk profile. The fund's straightforward objective, physical replication, and transparent underlying assets support the non-complex classification.",
