    "supporting_data": "The ETF uses synthetic replication via swaps and financial derivative instruments, including money market swaps, currency forwards, and interest rate swaps. While these are primarily for hedging purposes, the presence of swaps and derivatives in the replication method introduces counterparty risk and complexity beyond simple physical replication. The KIID explicitly mentions the use of financial derivative instruments, which is a key indicator of complexity under MiFID II. Additionally, the fact sheet confirms the synthetic replication method, reinforcing the classification as complex.",
    "confidence": 90,
    "risk_level": "The risk level is relatively low (SRRI 1-2), but the use of derivatives and swaps introduces additional layers of risk, such as counterparty risk, which are not present in non-complex ETFs. The ETF's objective is straightforward, but the method of achieving it involves complexity that may not be easily understood by retail investors.",
    "counter_argument": "Some might argue that the derivatives are used solely for hedging and efficient portfolio management, which could suggest a non-complex classification. However, MiFID II guidelines typically classify synthetic replication ETFs as complex due to the inherent risks and the need for investors to understand counterparty exposure and derivative mechanics. The presence of swaps and the explicit mention of derivative risks in the KIID outweigh this argument."
