    "supporting_data": "The L&G Digital Payments 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 stated in the fact sheet, directly investing in securities represented in the index. 2. Derivative Usage: While the KIID mentions potential use of financial derivative instruments (FDIs), the fact sheet clarifies this is for efficient portfolio management (e.g., managing tracking error) rather than as an inherent part of the strategy. 3. No Leverage/Inverse Features: The fund has no leverage or inverse exposure. 4. Underlying Assets: The index tracks liquid, transparent equity securities in the digital payments sector with no complex structures. 5. Risk Profile: The fund's risk rating (7/7) reflects the sector's volatility, not structural complexity. 6. UCITS Compliance: The fund is UCITS-compliant, meeting MiFID II's transparency and investor protection standards. The fact sheet confirms no swap usage or synthetic replication, and the index methodology is straightforward (equally weighted, liquidity-capped constituents). While the KIID mentions FDIs, the fact sheet's physical replication method and lack of swap references override this potential complexity indicator. The fund's structure is transparent, with no capital protection or structured features.",
