    "supporting_data": "The L&G Asia Pacific ex Japan 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 with optimised sampling, which is a straightforward approach. 2. Derivative Usage: While the KIID mentions the possibility of using financial derivative instruments (FDIs), the fact sheet confirms the replication method is physical with optimisation, and there is no indication of extensive or complex derivative usage. The mention of FDIs appears to be a standard disclosure rather than an active strategy. 3. Leverage/Inverse: There is no mention of leverage, inverse exposure, or amplified returns. 4. Underlying Assets: The fund invests in large and mid-cap equities in the Asia-Pacific region, which are liquid and transparent. 5. Risk Profile: The fund is rated 6 on the risk scale, which is moderate, and the risks are clearly disclosed. 6. Costs: The ongoing charge is 0.16%, which is standard for ETFs. 7. UCITS Compliance: The fund is UCITS-compliant, which inherently limits complexity. The absence of synthetic replication, leverage, or complex structured products supports the non-complex classification. The fund's straightforward equity exposure and physical replication method make it suitable for retail investors.",
