    "supporting_data": "The ETF uses synthetic replication via swaps to achieve its investment objective, which is a key complexity indicator under MiFID II. The KIID explicitly mentions 'Indirect Replication (Swap)' and 'derivative with one or more counterparties,' introducing counterparty risk. While the fund tracks a covered bond index and has a relatively low-risk profile (category 3), the use of swaps for replication makes it complex. The PRIIPs KID and factsheet confirm the swap-based structure, with no indication of excessive leverage or inverse strategies. The complexity arises from the derivative-based replication method rather than the underlying assets' risk.",
    "confidence": 90,
    "counter_argument": "One could argue that the fund's low-risk profile (category 3) and straightforward index-tracking objective might justify a non-complex classification. However, MiFID II explicitly flags synthetic replication via swaps as a complexity factor, overriding the low-risk profile in this case.",
    "risk_level": "Medium (Category 3)",
    "additional_notes": "The fund's complexity is driven by its synthetic replication method, not the underlying covered bonds' risk. The swap-based structure introduces counterparty risk and operational complexity, which are key MiFID II complexity triggers."
