    "factual_background": "FACTS ASSERTED BY THE COMPLAINANT AND NOT CONTESTED BY THE RESPONDENT:\r\n\r\nThe Complainant is an Italian banking group which was formed in 2007 following the merger of Banca Intesa S.p.A. and Sanpaulo IMI S.p.A. It has a market capitalisation exceeding EUR 29.9 billion and approximately 3,700 branches in Italy as well as many branches in other countries. The Complainant trades as INTESA SANPAULO and owns many trade marks to protect this trading style including the mark in respect of which full details are given above. It also owns a large number of domain names which comprise or include its trade marks, including <intesasanpaulo.com> which resolves to its principal website. \r\n\r\nThe disputed domain name was registered on November 16, 2019. As at August 15, 2020 it did not resolve to an active website. \r\n",
    "other_legal_proceedings": "The Panel is not aware of any other legal proceedings that relate to the disputed domain name.",
    "no_response_filed": "NO ADMINISTRATIVELY COMPLIANT RESPONSE HAS BEEN FILED.\r\n\r\nPARTIES' CONTENTIONS:\r\n\r\nCOMPLAINANT:\r\n\r\nThe disputed domain name is identical or at least confusingly similar to the Complainant’s INTESA SANPAULO trade mark as it exactly reproduces it and couples it with the acronym IT, which is an abbreviation for the geographical term “Italy” where the Complainant has its headquarters. \r\n\r\nThe Respondent has no rights or legitimate interests in respect of the disputed domain name. Any use of the Complainant’s INTESA SANPAULO mark has to be authorised by it and it has not authorised or licensed the Respondent to register or use the disputed domain name. The Respondent is not known as INTESA SANPAULO-IT, nor is it making any fair or non-commercial uses of the disputed domain name. \r\n\r\nThe Respondent has registered and is using the disputed domain name in bad faith. The fact that the disputed domain name is confusingly similar to the Complaint’s INTESA SANPAULO trade mark suggests that the Respondent was aware of the Complainant’s trade mark as at the date it registered it. The disputed domain name is not being used for any bona fide offering. Passive holding of a domain name can in appropriate circumstances amount to registration and use in bad faith. There is no conceivable use that could be made of the disputed domain name that would not amount to an infringement of the Complainant’s mark. Moreover, the Respondent may have registered the disputed domain name either for the purpose of phishing or other illicit uses or for the purpose of selling it to the Complainant, which would amount to bad faith registration and use under paragraph 4(b)(i) of the Policy.",
