    "classification": "complex",
    "supporting_data": "The ETF is classified as complex primarily due to its use of total return swaps and contracts for difference (up to 10% of assets, though not expected to exceed 5%), as well as derivatives for both efficient portfolio management and investment purposes. While the primary replication method is physical, the presence of swaps and derivatives introduces counterparty risk and potential complexity in understanding the fund's risk profile. The KIID explicitly mentions derivative-related risks, including unexpected behavior of derivatives and leverage effects, which are key indicators of complexity under MiFID II. Additionally, the fund's active management and multi-factor strategy, while not inherently complex, add layers of decision-making that may not be easily understood by retail investors. The risk profile (category 6) and the inclusion of counterparty risk warnings further support this classification.",
    "confidence": 85,
    "counter_argument": "The fund could be argued as non-complex due to its primary physical replication and straightforward equity investment strategy. However, the use of swaps and derivatives, even at low percentages, introduces elements that require specialist knowledge to fully understand the risks involved, particularly around counterparty exposure and the potential divergence of derivative behavior from underlying assets.",
    "risk_level": 6,
    "primary_reasoning": "The use of total return swaps, contracts for difference, and derivatives for purposes beyond simple replication introduces complexity that may not be easily understood by retail investors, aligning with MiFID II criteria for complex instruments."
