The Consorzio Obbligatorio was formed under the 1874 banking law that attempted to rationalize Italy's chaotic post-unification note-issuing system, in which six separate banks of issue operated in parallel. Rather than creating a central bank outright — politically impossible at the time — the government compelled these institutions into a consortium obligated to issue small-denomination notes collectively, covering the gap left by the withdrawal of subsidiary silver coinage from circulation.
The San Teodoro workshop in Rome was the state's own production facility, giving the government direct control over this issue rather than routing it through commercial printers. The consortium arrangement dissolved once the Banca d'Italia was established in 1893.
