    "supporting_data": "The UBS BBG TIPS 1-10 UCITS ETF is a UCITS-compliant, physically replicated ETF tracking a transparent, well-documented inflation-linked bond index. Derivatives are used only for efficient portfolio management (EPM) and currency hedging, not as a core part of the investment strategy. There is no synthetic replication, no embedded derivatives, no leverage beyond UCITS limits, no securities lending, and the underlying index is straightforward. The structure, risks, and objectives are transparent and easily understood by retail investors with basic knowledge. All these factors align with the MiFID II presumption that UCITS ETFs are non-complex unless specific features introduce complexity, which is not the case here[1][2]. The use of derivatives for EPM and hedging, when well-disclosed and not central to the strategy, does not automatically trigger a complex classification under MiFID II, especially when the risks (e.g., counterparty risk) are mitigated and the impact on the risk-return profile is minimal[1]. The ETFu2019s documentation clearly states the purpose and limited scope of derivative use, supporting a non-complex classification."
