    "supporting_data": "The iShares EUR Covered Bond UCITS ETF primarily uses physical replication to track the Markit iBoxx Euro Covered Index, investing directly in Euro-denominated covered bonds. While the KIID mentions the use of financial derivative instruments (FDIs) for direct investment purposes, this appears to be for efficient portfolio management rather than as a core strategy. The fund does not employ leverage, inverse strategies, or synthetic replication. The risk profile is moderate (rated 3), and the underlying assets (covered bonds) are relatively straightforward and liquid. The use of derivatives is limited and does not introduce significant additional risk or complexity that would require specialist knowledge. The fund is UCITS-compliant, which generally aligns with non-complex classifications under MiFID II.",
    "confidence": 85,
    "counter_argument": "The presence of derivatives could be seen as a complexity indicator. However, the derivatives are used for direct investment purposes and not for leverage or synthetic replication, which are key complexity triggers under MiFID II. The fund's overall structure and risk profile remain transparent and suitable for retail investors.",
