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.
Alat, a Public Investment Fund (PIF) company established to advance Saudi Arabia's advanced-manufacturing ambitions under Vision 2030, closed a EUR 160 million (~USD 185 million) joint venture with Germany's TK Elevator on 5 August 2025 to manufacture and service elevators, escalators, and moving walks in Saudi Arabia for the Saudi and wider MENA market. Alat separately acquired a 15% long-term equity stake in TK Elevator itself. The JV establishes what Alat and TKE describe as the first elevator/escalator manufacturing operation in Saudi Arabia by a global company, including a product-development centre and training facility, and is a direct antecedent to the later TKE ALAT groundbreaking on a ~SAR 285 million (~EUR 65 million) manufacturing facility in Dammam's Third Industrial City.
On 7 July 2025 Saudi Arabia's National Development Fund (NDF) signed two credit facility agreements with Al Rajhi Bank and Arab National Bank totalling SAR 5 billion (approx. USD 1.3 billion). The facilities are intended to strengthen liquidity for the NDF's 12 affiliated development funds and banks so they can extend financing to development projects under Vision 2030, rather than target any specific sector or company. The signing ceremony was held at NDF headquarters in Riyadh.
