    "supporting_data": "The ETF uses physical replication as its primary method, investing directly in global equity securities to track the FTSE Global All Cap Choice Index. While it may use derivatives for risk reduction or cost efficiency, there is no evidence of synthetic replication, leverage, or inverse strategies. The derivatives usage appears to be for efficient portfolio management rather than as an inherent part of the investment strategy. The fund's risk profile is rated 6/7, which is relatively high but not necessarily indicative of complexity under MiFID II. The ETF is UCITS-compliant, which typically aligns with non-complex classification. The index it tracks is complex due to ESG screening, but this does not automatically make the ETF complex. The absence of swaps, leverage, or inverse exposure further supports the non-complex classification. The fact sheet confirms physical replication and no mention of swap-based structures. The only potential complexity factor is the use of derivatives, but this is likely for hedging or cost reduction, not as a core strategy. The fund's transparency, liquidity, and straightforward equity exposure make it suitable for retail investors."
