    "factual_background": "As the Respondent did not file any response to the complaint, the Panel took into account the following facts asserted by the Complainant (and supported by the documentary evidence submitted by the Complainant) and unchallenged by the Respondent:\r\n\r\n(a) The Complainant is Europe's number one asset manager by assets under management and has offices in 37 countries in Europe, Asia-Pacific, the Middle-East and the Americas. With €1,425 billion in assets under management and over 100 million retail, institutional and corporate clients, the Complainant ranks in the top 10 globally.\r\n\r\n(b) The Complainant owns the Complainant's Trademark.\r\n\r\n(c) The Complainant also owns the domain name <amundi.com>, registered on 26 August 2004, used for its official website. The Complainant also owns several domain names comprising the distinctive wording AMUNDI® and terms related to its activities, such as <amundi-assetmanagement.com>, <amundi-capitalinvestment.com> or <amundi-funds.com>.\r\n\r\n(d) The disputed domain name <amundi-assets.com> was registered on 13 December 2020 and is now suspended, however as of 22 December 2020 there was a website under the subdomain <web.amundi-assets.com> using name of the Complainant and Complainant's Trademark.

    "no_response_filed": "PARTIES' CONTENTIONS:\r\n\r\nTHE COMPLAINANT:\r\n\r\nIn addition to the above factual assertions, the Complainant also contends the following:\r\n\r\n(i) The disputed domain name is confusingly similar Complainant’s Trademark. It contains Complainant’s Trademark followed by a generic term “assets”. Adding such non-distinctive term does not diminish confusing similarity of disputed domain name to Complainant's Trademark.\r\n\r\n(ii) The Respondent is not affiliated with the Complainant nor authorized by it in any way to use Complainant’s Trademark. The Complainant does not carry out any activity for, nor has any business with the Respondent. Neither license nor authorization has been granted to the Respondent to make any use of the Complainant’s Trademark or apply for registration of the disputed domain name by the Complainant. Moreover, the website operated under the subdomain <web.amundi-assets.com> displays Complainant’s Trademark and name. The Complainant contends that the Respondent attempted to pass itself off as Complainant in order to create a likelihood of confusion with the Complainant. Therefore, the Respondent has no legitimate interest in the disputed domain name.\r\n\r\n(iii) Given the distinctiveness of the Complainant's Trademark and reputation, it is reasonable to infer that the Respondent has registered the domain name with full knowledge of the Complainant's Trademark. The Respondent has intentionally attempted to attract, for commercial gain, Internet users to his website, by creating a likelihood of confusion with the Complainant with the intent to deceive consumers. This amounts to bad faith in registration and use of the disputed domain name.\r\n\r\nFor the above reasons, the Complainant seeks transfer the disputed domain name to the Complainant.\r\n\r\nTHE RESPONDENT:\r\n\r\nThe Respondent did not provide any response to the complaint.",
