It uses physical replication (holding a representative sample of the underlying bonds), which is straightforward and transparent for retail investors. While the fund may use derivatives for efficient portfolio management (EPM) to reduce risk or cost, such use is limited and not central to the investment strategyu2014derivatives are not used for synthetic replication or to achieve leveraged or inverse returns. There is no evidence of embedded derivatives, swaps, or contingent convertible bonds in the portfolio. The fundu2019s structure, risks (primarily market, credit, and liquidity risks associated with emerging market bonds), and investment objective are clearly disclosed and easily understood by retail investors with basic knowledge.

Therefore, the ETF meets all criteria for non-complex classification under MiFID II Article 25(4) and Delegated Regulation Article 57[1]."
