    "supporting_data": "The ETF is classified as non-complex under MiFID II based on the following analysis:1. **Replication Method**: The fund uses physical replication ('Product Structure: Physical' in the factsheet) to track the MSCI Japan ESG Enhanced Focus CTB Index, which is a straightforward equity index. There is no mention of synthetic replication, swaps, or derivative instruments in the KIID or factsheet.2. **Leverage and Inverse Exposure**: The fund does not employ any leverage or inverse strategies. The risk profile is aligned with traditional equity investments, and there are no references to amplified returns or gearing.3. **Underlying Asset Complexity**: The underlying assets are equities of Japanese companies, which are liquid and transparent. The index methodology involves ESG screening and optimization but does not introduce complexity beyond standard equity investing.4. **Capital Protection and Structured Features**: There are no capital guarantees, principal protection features, or structured return formulas mentioned in the KIID or factsheet.5. **Risk Profile**: The fund is rated '6' on the risk scale, which is typical for equity funds. The risks disclosed (e.g., concentration risk, equity market risk) are standard for equity investments and do not indicate complexity.6. **Costs and Charges**: The ongoing charges are straightforward (0.15%), with no performance fees or complex fee structures. Securities lending is mentioned but does not introduce complexity.7. **Counterparty Risk**: While counterparty risk is mentioned in the KIID, it is standard for any fund that engages in securities lending or derivative transactions (even if minimal). The fund does not appear to have significant counterparty exposure based on the disclosures.8. **PRIIPs KID and Factsheet**: The PRIIPs KID does not include a 'comprehension alert,' which would indicate complexity. The factsheet confirms the physical replication method and lack of derivative usage.**Conclusion**: The fund is a standard UCITS-compliant equity ETF with a physical replication strategy, no leverage or derivatives, and a transparent risk profile. It does not meet the criteria for a 'complex' financial instrument under MiFID II.",
