    "supporting_data": "The HSBC Europe Sustainable Equity UCITS ETF primarily uses physical replication to track the FTSE Developed Europe ESG Low Carbon Select Index. While the KIID mentions the potential use of derivatives (up to 10% in total return swaps and contracts for difference), this is explicitly stated to be for efficient portfolio management purposes rather than as a core strategy. The fund's risk profile (category 6) is driven by market volatility rather than structural complexity. The use of derivatives is limited and clearly disclosed, with no indication of leverage or inverse strategies. The fund's transparency, liquidity, and straightforward replication method align with non-complex characteristics under MiFID II.",
    "confidence": 90,
    "counter_argument": "The presence of swaps and derivatives could suggest complexity, but the limited usage (up to 10%) and clear disclosure of their purpose (efficient portfolio management) mitigate this. The fund's physical replication and UCITS compliance further support a non-complex classification.",
    "risk_level": 6,
    "additional_notes": "The fund's ESG focus and exclusionary criteria do not introduce complexity under MiFID II, as these are transparent and well-documented. The derivative usage is secondary to the primary physical replication strategy."
