Intesa Sanpaolo is the company resulting from the merger (effective as of January 1, 2007) between Banca Intesa S.p.A. and Sanpaolo IMI S.p.A., two of the top Italian banking groups.\r\n\r\nThe Complainant is the owner, among others, of the following registrations for the international and EU trademarks “INTESA SANPAOLO” and “INTESA” in classes 9, 16, 35, 36, 38, 41 and 42. Moreover, the Complainant is also the owner, among the others, of multiple domain names bearing the signs “INTESA SANPAOLO” and “INTESA” (e.g. <INTESASANPAOLO.COM, .ORG, .EU, .INFO, .NET, .BIZ, INTESA-SANPAOLO.COM, .ORG, .EU, .INFO, .NET, .BIZ>), all of which are now connected to the official website http:\/\/www.intesasanpaolo.com.\r\n\r\nOn September 27, 2020, the Respondent registered the disputed domain name <INTESASANPAOLO.FINANCE>.\r\n\r\nThe Complainant asserts that their “INTESA SANPAOLO” and “INTESA” trademarks are well-known, that the disputed domain name is identical or confusingly similar to a trademark or service mark in which the Complainant has rights, that the Respondent has no permission from the Complainant to use the Complainant’s trademarks nor does it have any rights or legitimate interests in respect of the disputed domain name, and that the disputed domain name was registered and is being used in bad faith. \r\n\r\nThe Complainant also states that, the Complainant’s attorneys sent to the Respondent a cease and desist letter, asking for the voluntary transfer of the domain name at issue. Despite such communication, the Respondent did not comply with the above request. ",
