    "supporting_data": "The asset is a UCITS ETF investing primarily in short duration high yield corporate bonds, tracking the Markit iBoxx USD Liquid High Yield 0-5 Capped Index. It uses physical replication with optimization techniques and may use financial derivatives only for limited purposes such as efficient portfolio management (EPM), with expected limited use. The ETF engages in short-term securities lending under UCITS rules, which does not automatically trigger complexity. There is no indication of synthetic replication, embedded derivatives, significant leverage, or complex structured products such as CLOs. The underlying index is transparent and straightforward, and the risks (credit risk, interest rate risk, liquidity risk) are typical for fixed income ETFs and understandable by retail investors with basic knowledge. According to MiFID II Article 254 and Delegated Regulation EU 2017/565 Article 57, UCITS ETFs are presumed non-complex unless they embed derivatives integral to the strategy or have complex features. This ETFu2019s limited derivative use for EPM and physical replication support a non-complex classification. ESMA guidance confirms that synthetic ETFs or structured UCITS with complex derivatives would be complex, but this is not the case here. Therefore, the ETF is classified as non-complex under MiFID II."
