    "supporting_data": "The iShares Edge MSCI USA Momentum Factor ETF is classified as non-complex under MiFID II based on the following analysis: 1. **Replication Method**: The fund uses physical replication, as explicitly stated in the PRIIPs KID ('Methodology: Replicated'). This is a key non-complex indicator.2. **Derivative Usage**: While the KIID mentions the possibility of using financial derivative instruments (FDIs) for direct investment purposes, the PRIIPs KID clarifies that the fund uses physical replication. The derivative usage appears to be limited to efficient portfolio management (e.g., FX contracts) rather than a core part of the strategy. There is no mention of swaps, synthetic replication, or leverage.3. **Underlying Assets**: The fund invests directly in equity securities that make up the MSCI USA Momentum Index, which are liquid and transparent. The index methodology is based on momentum scoring, but this does not introduce complexity beyond standard factor-based investing.4. **Risk Profile**: The fund is rated 6 out of 7 on the risk scale, which is relatively high but not indicative of complexity. The risks disclosed (e.g., index methodology risk, factor focus risk) are standard for equity ETFs and do not suggest complexity.5. **Other Factors**: There are no capital protection mechanisms, leverage, inverse exposure, or structured features. The fund is UCITS-compliant, which typically aligns with non-complex classification.6. **Counterarguments and Override**: While the KIID mentions the potential use of derivatives, the PRIIPs KID explicitly states 'Product Structure: Physical,' which overrides any ambiguity. The derivative usage is not a core part of the strategy and does not materially alter the fund's risk profile.7. **Confidence**: The classification is highly confident (95%) due to the clear physical replication method and lack of complex features.",
