    ],
    "classification": "complex",
    "supporting_data": "The ETF uses derivatives (futures, options, swaps) not solely for efficient portfolio management (EPM) but also for exposure to underlying assets, which introduces additional complexity. The KIID explicitly mentions counterparty risk and the potential for larger gains/losses due to derivative usage. While the fund is physically replicated, the active management and use of derivatives beyond simple hedging or replication purposes contribute to its complexity. The presence of mortgage-related and asset-backed securities, which carry prepayment and liquidity risks, further supports this classification.",
    "confidence": 85,
    "risk_level": 4,
    "counter_argument": "The ETF could be argued as non-complex due to its physical replication and lack of leverage. However, the use of derivatives for purposes other than EPM, combined with exposure to complex underlying assets and explicit warnings about counterparty risk, outweighs this argument under MiFID II guidelines.",
    "additional_notes": "The PRIIPs KID and factsheet reinforce the derivative usage and counterparty risk disclosures, which are key factors in the complex classification. The fund's active management and potential exposure to below-investment-grade securities also contribute to its complexity."
