    "supporting_data": "The ETF uses physical replication to track the WisdomTree US Equity Income UCITS Index, which consists of high-dividend-yielding US companies screened for quality and momentum. The fund employs currency hedging via forward foreign exchange contracts to neutralize USD/GBP fluctuations, but this is for efficient portfolio management rather than leverage or complex strategies. The KIID and factsheet confirm no synthetic replication, leverage, or inverse exposure. The fund is UCITS-compliant, has a straightforward investment objective, and uses derivatives only for hedging purposes, which does not trigger complexity under MiFID II. The risk profile (SRRI 6) is due to equity market exposure rather than structural complexity.",
    "confidence": 95,
    "counter_argument": "Some might argue that the use of forward foreign exchange contracts for hedging introduces complexity. However, under MiFID II, derivatives used solely for hedging or efficient portfolio management do not classify an ETF as complex, provided they do not materially alter the risk profile or require specialist knowledge. The fund's physical replication and transparent index-tracking strategy further support its non-complex classification.",
    "risk_level": 6,
    "benchmark_complexity": "The index is rule-based and fundamentally weighted, using dividend yield and a composite risk score (quality and momentum). While this introduces some complexity in selection criteria, it remains a transparent and systematic methodology that does not inherently make the ETF complex under MiFID II."
