    "classification": "complex",
    "supporting_data": "The ETF uses synthetic replication via unfunded total return swaps, which introduces counterparty risk and requires understanding of derivative instruments. While the underlying index (S&P 500) is straightforward, the use of swaps and currency hedging via derivatives makes the investment strategy more complex. The KIID explicitly mentions counterparty risk and the sensitivity of derivatives to market movements, which are key complexity indicators under MiFID II. The PRIIPs KID confirms the synthetic structure and highlights counterparty risk as a key risk factor. The fact sheet reinforces the swap-based replication method and the use of derivatives for hedging, which aligns with the complexity classification.",
    "confidence": 90,
    "counter_argument": "One could argue that the S&P 500 is a well-known, liquid index and the swap-based replication is a common practice in ETFs. However, MiFID II specifically flags synthetic replication and counterparty risk as complexity factors, which override the simplicity of the underlying index.",
    "overriding_reason": "The explicit use of unfunded total return swaps and the associated counterparty risk, as well as the derivative-based currency hedging, are clear indicators of complexity under MiFID II, regardless of the underlying index's simplicity."
