unsecured and unconditionally and irrevocably guaranteed as to payments of interest and principal
by
ISP CB Pubblico S.r.l.
(incorporated as a limited liability company under the laws of the Republic of Italy)
The Euro 20,000,000,000 Covered Bond (Obbligazioni Bancarie Garantite) Programme (the
Programme) described in this base prospectus (the Base Prospectus) has been established by Intesa
Sanpaolo S.p.A. (in its capacity as issuer of the Covered Bonds, as herein defined below, Intesa
Sanpaolo, the Bank or the Issuer) for the issuance of obbligazioni bancarie garantite (Covered Bonds
which term includes, for avoidance of doubt the Registered Covered Bonds as defined below)
guaranteed by ISP CB Pubblico S.r.l. pursuant to Article 7-bis of Law no. 130 of 30 April 1999 (as
subsequently amended, the Law 130) and regulated by the Decree of the Ministry of Economy and
Finance no. 310 of 14 December 2006 (the MEF Decree) and the supervisory instructions of the Bank
of Italy relating to covered bonds under Part III, Chapter 3, of the circular no. 285 of 17 December
2013, containing the "Disposizioni di vigilanza per le banche" as further implemented and amended
(the BoI OBG Regulations).
ISP CB Pubblico S.r.l. (the Covered Bonds Guarantor) issued a first demand (a prima richiesta),
autonomous, unconditional and irrevocable (irrevocabile) guarantee (garanzia autonoma) securing the
payment obligations of the Issuer under the Covered Bonds (the Covered Bonds Guarantee), in
accordance with the provisions of Law 130 and of the MEF Decree. The obligation of payment under
the Covered Bonds Guarantee shall be limited recourse to the Portfolio and the Available Funds (as
defined herein).
This Base Prospectus has been approved by the Commission de Surveillance du Secteur Financier (the
CSSF), which is the competent authority under Regulation EU 2017/1129 (the Prospectus Regulation)
in the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg, as a base prospectus for the purpose of article 8 of the Prospectus
Regulation.
The CSSF only approves this Base Prospectus as meeting the standards of completeness,
comprehensibility and consistency imposed by the Prospectus Regulation. Approval by the CSSF
should not be considered as an endorsement of the Issuer or the Guarantor or the quality of the Covered
Bonds that are subject to this Base Prospectus. Potential investors should make their own assessment
as to the suitability of investing in Covered Bonds.
Capitalised terms used in this Base Prospectus shall have the meaning ascribed to them in the
"Glossary" included herein, unless otherwise defined in the single section of this Base Prospectus in
which they are used.



Where Covered Bonds (other than Registered Covered Bonds) issued under the Programme are
admitted to trading on a regulated market within the European Economic Area or offered to the public
in a Member State of the European Economic Area in circumstances which require the publication of a
prospectus under the Prospectus Regulation, such Covered Bonds will not have a denomination of less
than Euro 100,000 (or, where the Covered Bonds are issued in a currency other than Euro, the equivalent
amount in such other currency).
Under the Programme, the Issuer may issue Covered Bonds denominated in any currencies, including
Euro, US Dollar, Japanese Yen, Swiss Franc and UK Sterling. Interest on the Covered Bonds shall
accrue monthly, quarterly, semi-annually, annually or on such other basis as specified in the relevant
Final Terms (as defined in the "Terms and Conditions of the Covered Bonds" below), in arrear at fixed
or floating rate, increased or decreased by a margin. The Issuer may also issue Covered Bonds at a
discounted price with no interest accruing and repayable at nominal value (zero-coupon Covered
Bonds).
The terms of each Series will be set forth in the Final Terms relating to such Series prepared in
accordance with the provisions of this Base Prospectus and, if listed, to be delivered to the CSSF and
the Luxembourg Stock Exchange on or before the date of issue of such Series.
Application has been made for Covered Bonds (other than Registered Covered Bonds) issued under the
Programme during the period of 12 (twelve) months from the date of this Base Prospectus to be listed
on the official list of the Luxembourg Stock Exchange and admitted to trading on the regulated market
of the Luxembourg Stock Exchange, which is a regulated market for the purposes of Directive
2014/65/EU. In addition, the Issuer and each Relevant Dealer (as defined in the "Terms and Conditions
of the Covered Bonds") named under "Subscription and Sale" may agree to make an application to list
a Series on any other stock exchange as specified in the relevant Final Terms. The Programme also
permits Covered Bonds to be issued on an unlisted basis.
As referred to in Article 6(4) of the Luxembourg law on prospectuses for securities of 16 July 2019, by
approving this Base Prospectus, in accordance with Article 20 of the Prospectus Regulation, the CSSF
does not engage in respect of the economic or financial opportunity of the operation or the quality and
solvency of the Issuer.
This Base Prospectus is valid for 12 months from the date of approval in relation to Covered
Bonds (until 22 December 2021) which are to be admitted to trading on a regulated market in the
European Economic Area (the EEA). The obligation to supplement this Base Prospectus in the
event of a significant new factor, material mistake or material inaccuracy does not apply when
this Base Prospectus is no longer valid.
Covered bonds may be issued in dematerialised form or in registered form also as German governed
registered covered bonds (Gedeckte Namensschuldverschreibung) (the Registered Covered Bonds).
The terms and conditions of the Registered Covered Bonds (the Registered Covered Bond
Conditions), which will differ from the terms and conditions set out in the section headed Terms and
Conditions of the Covered Bonds, will specify the minimum denomination for Registered Covered
Bonds, which might not be listed. This Base Prospectus does not relate to the Registered Covered
Bonds, which may be issued by the Issuer under the Programme pursuant to either separate
documentation or the documents described in this Base Prospectus after having made the necessary
amendments. The approval of this Base Prospectus by the CSSF does not cover any Registered
Covered Bonds which may be issued by the Issuer under the Programme.
Amounts payable under the Covered Bonds may be calculated by reference to EURIBOR, or to LIBOR,
in each case as specified in the relevant Final Terms. As at the date of this Base Prospectus, the ICE
Benchmark Administration (as administrator of LIBOR) and the European Money Markets Institute
(EMMI as administrator of EURIBOR) are included in the register of administrators and benchmarks



established and maintained by the European Securities and Markets Authority pursuant to article 36 of
Regulation (EU) 2016/1011 (the BMR).
The Covered Bonds issued in dematerialised form to be issued on or after the date hereof will be held
on behalf of their ultimate owners, until redemption or cancellation thereof, by Monte Titoli S.p.A.
(Monte Titoli) for the account of the relevant Monte Titoli Account Holders. The expression Monte
Titoli Account Holders means any authorised financial intermediary institution entitled to hold
accounts on behalf of their customers with Monte Titoli and includes any depositary banks appointed
by Euroclear Bank S.A. / N.V. as operator of the Euroclear Bank S.A./N.V., 1 Boulevard du Roi Albert
II, B-1210 Bruxelles (Euroclear) and Clearstream Banking, société anonyme, 42 Avenue JF Kennedy,
1855, Luxembourg (Clearstream). Each Series of Covered Bonds issued in dematerialised form is and
will be deposited with Monte Titoli on the relevant Issue Date (as defined in the "Terms and Conditions
of the Covered Bonds" below). Monte Titoli shall act as depositary for Clearstream and Euroclear. The
Covered Bonds will at all times be held in book entry form and title to the Covered Bonds will be
evidenced by book entries in accordance with the provisions of Italian Legislative Decree no. 58 of 24
February 1998 (Financial Law) and implementing regulation and with the joint regulation of the
Commissione Nazionale per le Società e la Borsa (CONSOB) and the Bank of Italy dated 13 August
2018and published in the Official Gazette of the Republic of Italy (Gazzetta Ufficiale della Repubblica
Italiana) No. 201 of 30 August 2018, as subsequently amended and supplemented. No physical
document of title is and will be issued in respect of the Covered Bonds.
Before the Maturity Date the Covered Bonds will be subject to mandatory and optional redemption in
whole or in part in certain circumstances, as set out in Condition 8 (Redemption and Purchase).
Each Series may, upon the relevant issue, be assigned a rating as specified in the relevant Final Terms
by Moody's France S.A.S. (Moody's or the Rating Agency) and/or any other rating agency which may
be appointed from time to time by the Issuer in relation to any issuance of Covered Bonds or for the
remaining duration of the Programme, to the extent that any of them at the relevant time provides ratings
in respect of any series of Covered Bonds. Conditions precedent to the issuance of any Series include
that the rating letter assigning the rating to such Series of Covered Bonds is issued by the Rating
Agency. Whether or not the credit rating applied for in relation to relevant Series of Covered Bonds
will be issued by a credit rating agency established in the European Union or in the United Kingdom
(UK) and registered under Regulation (EC) No. 1060/2009 (as amended, the CRA Regulation) will be
disclosed in the Final Terms. In general, European regulated investors are restricted from using a rating
for regulatory purposes if such rating is not issued by a credit rating agency established in the European
Union or the UK and registered under the CRA Regulation (or is endorsed and published or distributed
by subscription by such a credit rating agency in accordance with the CRA Regulation) unless (1) the
rating is provided by a credit rating agency not established in the EEA or the UK but endorsed by a
credit rating agency established in the EEA or the UK and registered under the CRA Regulation or (2)
the rating is provided by a credit rating agency not established in the EEA or the UK which is certified
under the CRA Regulation. The European Securities and Markets Authority (the ESMA) is obliged to
maintain on its website, https://www.esma.europa.eu/page/List-registered-and-certified-CRAs, a list of
credit rating agencies registered and certified in accordance with the CRA Regulation.
A credit rating is not a recommendation to buy, sell or hold Covered Bonds and may be subject
to revision or withdrawal by the Rating Agency.

an investment in the Covered Bonds, see the section entitled "Risk Factors" of this Base
Prospectus.

For a description of certain restrictions on offers, sales and deliveries of Covered Bonds and on the
distribution of the Base Prospectus or any Final Terms and other offering material relating to the
Covered Bonds, see the section headed "Subscription and Sale" of this Base Prospectus. In particular,
the Covered Bonds have not been and will not be registered under the United States Securities Act of
1933, as amended. Subject to certain exceptions, Covered Bonds may not be offered, sold or delivered
within the United States of America or to U.S. persons.
Intesa Sanpaolo may offer and sell the Covered Bonds to or through one or more underwriters, dealers
and agents, including Intesa Sanpaolo, or directly to purchasers.
Neither this Base Prospectus, any supplement thereto, nor any Final Terms (or any part thereof)
constitutes an offer, nor may they be used for the purpose of an offer to sell any of the Covered Bonds,
or a solicitation of an offer to buy any of the Covered Bonds, by anyone in any jurisdiction or in any

The language of the Base Prospectus is English. Where a claim relating to the information contained in
this Base Prospectus is brought before a court in a member State of the European Economic Area (a
Member State), the plaintiff may, under the national legislation of the Member State where the claim
is brought, be required to bear the costs of translating the Base Prospectus before the legal proceedings
are initiated.
This Base Prospectus may only be used for the purpose for which it has been published.

aggregation of the figures which preceded them.
Each initial and subsequent purchaser of a Covered Bond will be deemed, by its acceptance of the
purchase of such Covered Bond, to have made certain acknowledgements, representations and
agreements intended to restrict the resale or other transfer thereof as set forth therein and described in
this Base Prospectus and, in connection therewith, may be required to provide confirmation of its
compliance with such resale or other transfer restrictions in certain cases.
The Arranger is acting for the Issuer and no one else in connection with the Programme and will not be
responsible to any person other than the Issuer for providing the protection afforded to clients of the
Arranger or for providing advice in relation to the issue of the Covered Bonds.



In connection with the issue of any Series under the Programme, the Dealer or the Dealers (if
any) which is specified in the relevant Final Terms as the stabilising manager (the Stabilising
Manager) or any person acting for the Stabilising Manager may over-allot any such Series or
effect transactions with a view to supporting the market price such Series at a level higher than
that which might otherwise prevail for a limited period. However, there may be no obligation on
the Stabilising Manager (or any agent of the Stabilising Manager) to do this. Any stabilisation
action may begin on or after the date on which adequate public disclosure of the final terms of
the offer of the Covered Bonds is made and, if begun, may be ended at any time, but it must end
no later than the earlier of 30 days after the issue date of the relevant Series and 60 days after the
date of the allotment of any such Series. Such stabilising shall be in compliance with all applicable
laws, regulations and rules.
IMPORTANT ­ EEA AND UK RETAIL INVESTORS ­ If the Final Terms in respect of any Cover
Bonds include a legend entitled Prohibition of Sales to EEA and UK Retail Investors, the Covered
Bonds are not intended to be offered, sold or otherwise made available to and should not be offered,
sold or otherwise made available to any retail investor in the European Economic Area (EEA) or in the
United Kingdom (UK). For these purposes, a retail investor means a person who is one (or more) of:
(i) a retail client as defined in point (11) of Article 4(1) of Directive 2014/65/EU (MiFID II); or (ii) a
customer within the meaning of Directive (UE) 2016/97 (IDD), where that customer would not qualify
as a professional client as defined in point (10) of Article 4(1) of MiFID II. Consequently no key
information document required by Regulation (EU) No 1286/2014 (the PRIIPs Regulation) for
offering or selling the Covered Bonds or otherwise making them available to retail investors in the EEA
or the UK has been prepared and therefore offering or selling the Covered Bonds or otherwise making
them available to any retail investor in the EEA or the UK may be unlawful under the PRIIPs
Regulation.
MIFID II product governance / target market ­ The Final Terms in respect of any Covered Bonds
will include a legend entitled "MiFID II Product Governance" which will outline the target market
assessment in respect of the Covered Bonds and which channels for distribution of the Covered Bonds
are appropriate. Any person subsequently offering, selling or recommending the Covered Bonds (a
"distributor") should take into consideration the target market assessment; however, a distributor subject
to MiFID II is responsible for undertaking its own target market assessment in respect of the Covered
Bonds (by either adopting or refining the target market assessment) and determining appropriate
distribution channels.
A determination will be made in relation to each issue about whether, for the purpose of the MiFID
Product Governance rules under EU Delegated Directive 2017/593 (the MiFID Product Governance
Rules), any Dealer subscribing for any Covered Bonds is a manufacturer in respect of such Covered
Bonds, but otherwise neither the Arranger nor the Dealers nor any of their respective affiliates will be
a manufacturer for the purpose of the MIFID Product Governance Rules.
