    "supporting_data": "The Robeco 3D European Equity UCITS ETF is a UCITS-compliant, physically replicating ETF that invests primarily in European equities. It is actively managed and may use derivatives for efficient portfolio management (EPM), but there is no evidence that derivatives are central to the investment strategy or that the ETF uses synthetic replication, swaps, or leverage beyond UCITS limits. The ETF's risk factors include counterparty risk (mitigated by collateral), liquidity risk, and model risk due to quantitative management, but these are disclosed and managed within UCITS rules. The structure, objectives, and risks are transparent and described in the KID. Under MiFID II, UCITS ETFs are generally presumed non-complex unless they employ complex strategies or structures that make the product difficult for a retail investor to understand. Here, the use of derivatives appears limited to EPM, the replication is physical, and there is no embedded complex payoff or contingent convertible feature. Therefore, despite active management and some derivative use, the ETF does not exhibit the features that would override the UCITS presumption of non-complexity under Article 25(4)(a)(iv) of MiFID II and Article 57 of the Delegated Regulation[1]. ESMA guidance confirms that UCITS are generally non-complex, with exceptions for structured UCITS or those using complex portfolio techniques, which is not the case here based on the available information[2]. The ETF's risks are market-based (equity, currency, liquidity) rather than structural complexity from derivatives or leverage."
