    "supporting_data": "The ETF uses physical replication as its primary method, investing directly in equity securities that make up the MSCI World Minimum Volatility Advanced Select Index. While the KIID mentions the use of financial derivative instruments (FDIs) for direct investment purposes, it specifies that these are used within the context of optimizing techniques to achieve similar returns to the index, which is typically considered efficient portfolio management (EPM) rather than a complex strategy. The fund does not employ leverage, inverse strategies, or synthetic replication. The risk indicator is rated 6, but this is primarily due to equity market risks rather than structural complexity. The fund's ESG constraints and minimum volatility strategy, while sophisticated, do not introduce complexity in the MiFID II sense, as they are clearly disclosed and the underlying assets remain straightforward equities. The absence of swaps, leverage, or capital protection mechanisms further supports the non-complex classification.",
    "confidence": 90,
    "counter_argument": "Some might argue that the use of derivatives and the optimized index tracking could introduce complexity. However, the derivatives are used for EPM and not as a core strategy, and the optimization is transparent and based on a well-defined index methodology. The fund's structure remains linear and understandable to retail investors.",
    "risk_level": "The fund has a risk rating of 6, indicating higher volatility typical of equity investments, but this is not due to structural complexity. The risks are primarily market-related and well-documented in the KIID."
