    "supporting_data": "The SPDR Bloomberg Sterling Corporate Bond UCITS ETF (Dist) is classified as non-complex under MiFID II based on the following analysis: 1. Replication Method: The fund uses 'stratified sampling' to physically replicate the Bloomberg Sterling Corporate Bond Index, which is a straightforward physical replication approach. 2. Derivative Usage: While the KIID mentions the fund 'may use financial derivative instruments... to manage the portfolio efficiently,' this is standard language for UCITS-compliant ETFs and does not indicate extensive or complex derivative usage. The fact sheet confirms the fund holds 916 bonds with no mention of swap usage or synthetic replication. 3. Leverage/Inverse: No leverage or inverse exposure is indicated in any documentation. 4. Underlying Assets: The fund invests in investment-grade corporate bonds, which are relatively straightforward and liquid. 5. Risk Profile: The fund is in risk category 4 (medium risk), which is typical for corporate bond funds and does not indicate complexity. 6. Costs: The TER of 0.20% is standard for bond ETFs. 7. No capital protection or structured features are present. The only potential complexity factor is the mention of derivatives in the KIID, but this is standard for UCITS ETFs and does not trigger complexity classification. The fund's physical replication, straightforward index tracking, and lack of leverage or inverse features all support a non-complex classification.",
