    "factual_background": "The Complainant, Intesa Sanpaolo S.p.A., was established in 2007 through a merger of two Italian banking groups, Banca Intesa S.p.A. and Sanpaolo IMI S.p.A. The Complainant is a leading Italian banking group with market capitalization exceeding 41.5 billion euro. The Complainant has a wide network throughout Italy with more than 21% of market shares and a client base of approximately 14.7 million customers. The Complainant has a strong presence in Central-Eastern Europe with a network of approximately 1,000 branches and over 7.1 million customers. \r\n\r\nThe disputed domain name, <intessanpa.com>, was registered on February 10, 2021 which resolved to a webpage which appeared to impersonate the Complainant.\r\n \r\n",
    "other_legal_proceedings": "The Panel is not aware of any other legal proceedings which are pending or decided and which relate to the disputed domain name.",
    "no_response_filed": "PARTIES' CONTENTIONS:\r\n\r\nCOMPLAINANT:\r\n\r\nThe Complainant contends that the disputed domain names are confusingly similar to the INTESA SANPAOLO and INTESA marks on the basis that the disputed domain name is almost identical to INTESA SANPAOLO with the omission of the letter “A” in “INTESA” and the letters, “O“, “L” and “O” in “SANPAOLO” are insufficient to avoid the finding that the disputed domain name is confusingly similar to its INTESA SANPAOLO and INTESA marks.\r\n\r\nThe Complainant also argues that the Respondent does not have any rights or legitimate interests in the disputed domain name. The Respondent is not commonly known by the disputed domain name. In addition, the Respondent is not affiliated with the Complainant nor did the Complainant license or authorize the Respondent to use the INTESA SANPAOLO and INTESA marks.\r\n\r\nThe Complainant further asserts that the disputed domain names have been registered and are being used in bad faith as the Respondent should have known of the Complainant’s INTESA SANPAOLO and INTESA marks at the time of registration of the disputed domain name. The Complainant also asserts that the Respondent is attempting to attract, for commercial gain, Internet users to the Respondent’s website, by creating a likelihood of confusion with the Complainant’s mark as to the source, sponsorship, affiliation, or endorsement of the Respondent’s website or of a product or service on the Respondent’s website.\r\n\r\n\r\nRESPONDENT:\r\n\r\nNO ADMINISTRATIVELY COMPLIANT RESPONSE HAS BEEN FILED.\r\n",
