    "supporting_data": "The L&G Emerging Markets ESG Exclusions Paris Aligned UCITS ETF is classified as non-complex under MiFID II based on the following analysis: 1. Replication Method: The fund uses physical replication ('full replication') as confirmed in both the KIID and fact sheet, with no mention of synthetic replication or swap agreements. 2. Derivative Usage: The fund may use financial derivative instruments (FDIs) for efficient portfolio management, but these are not central to the investment strategy. The fact sheet explicitly states the replication method is physical. 3. Leverage/Inverse Exposure: No leverage or inverse exposure is mentioned in any documentation. 4. Underlying Assets: The fund invests in large/mid-cap emerging market equities with no reference to complex structured products or illiquid assets. 5. Risk Profile: The fund has a risk rating of 6/7, which is moderate and typical for equity ETFs. 6. Cost Structure: Simple TER of 0.25% with no performance fees or complex fee structures. 7. UCITS Compliance: The fund is UCITS-compliant, which inherently limits complexity. The fact that the fund is designed for retail investors (as stated in the fact sheet) further supports the non-complex classification. The only potential complexity factor would be the ESG exclusions and Paris Alignment criteria, but these do not materially affect the fund's complexity under MiFID II.",
