Structured register of government actions in the geoeconomic space — export controls, tariffs, sanctions, FDI screening, subsidies, industrial-policy laws — cross-referenced into the country, minerals, and ETF surface. Charter: docs/IPTM_CHARTER.md.
Severity 1-5 is the qualitative impact rating (1=minor, 5=structural). The bilateral-trade-grounded quant scorer is the next IPTM milestone. RBI (Register Breadth Index) is a complementary structural-breadth indicator from scripts/py/iptm/breadth.py; divergence between RBI and severity is itself informative (high-sev / low-RBI = strategic chokepoint; low-sev / high-RBI = broad but shallow). Every action has at least one primary source URL. Verify-or-don't-file. See also themes, timeline, graph, sankey, map, country exposure, sector exposure, material exposure (+ graph), weekly briefs, portfolio scan, escalation monitor, trans-shipment hubs. Internal triage tools (RSS-poller candidate feed, source-feed health) live under /admin/candidates + /admin/sources. Subscribe via Atom feed (accepts ?country=CN, ?material=lithium, ?issuer=BIS, ?type=export_control, ?etf=SOXX, ?company=NVDA, ?minSeverity=4, ?year=2026, ?q=…) or pull /api/iptm/actions.
Brazil's national development bank BNDES approved BRL 950 million (~USD 176 million) in financing on 12 January 2026 for Inpasa Agroindustrial S/A to build its sixth Brazilian biorefinery, in Luís Eduardo Magalhães, western Bahia. The package blends BRL 350 million from Fundo Clima (concessional climate fund) with BRL 600 million from the BNDES Finem line, which Global Trade Alert flags for local-content incentives. The plant will process up to 1 million tonnes of corn, sorghum and other grains a year, producing an estimated 498 million litres of ethanol, 248,900 tonnes of DDGS and 185 GWh of electricity, reaching full capacity from 2027.
Brazil's national development bank BNDES approved BRL 300 million (~USD 55.7 million) in financing on 27 October 2025 for Neomille S.A. (CerradinhoBio group) to expand its corn-processing plant in Chapadão do Céu, Goiás. The package draws on two lines — BRL 240 million from Fundo Clima (climate fund, below-market rate) and BRL 60 million from BNDES Finem Incentivada — and will lift the plant's corn-ethanol capacity to up to 527,000 m3 per harvest, DDGS output to 265,000 tonnes, and corn-oil output to 21,000 tonnes, while creating 91 permanent jobs. Global Trade Alert classifies the BNDES Finem Incentivada leg as a "certainly harmful" local-content-incentive intervention.
Brazil's national development bank BNDES approved R$625 million in financing on 11 August 2025 for São Martinho S/A to build a second processing line at its Boa Vista corn-ethanol complex in Quirinópolis, Goiás, blending R$500 million from the concessional Fundo Clima with R$125 million from the standard BNDES Finem line. FINEP (Financiadora de Estudos e Projetos) is contributing a further R$102.8 million earmarked for the project's innovative components — Industry 4.0 process technology and a first-in-Brazil vinasse oil-recovery process. Combined, the two public financiers cover R$727.8 million (~62%) of the R$1.18 billion total project cost, with São Martinho funding the remaining R$452.2 million from its own resources. The expansion adds 635,000 tonnes/year of corn-milling capacity and 270,000 m³/year of ethanol output, targeted for 2027 start-up.
