In issuing the order, the regulator used the term "Decreto crescita" ("Growth Decree," Law No. 58 of June 28, 2019, article 36, paragraph 2 - tdecies).。The legislation authorizes CONSOB to order Internet service providers to block access to unauthorized investment websites aimed at Italian residents.。

Since July 2019, when Consob had the authority to order the blocking of websites of fraudulent financial intermediaries, the number of blocked websites has risen to 1,008.。Last week, regulators ordered a ban on access to websites from Alphascrypto, Blackridge Capital Management and Fast-MNG.。

Internet service providers are blocking these sites。For technical reasons, implementing the lockdown could take days。
