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.
On 5 February 2026, at the National Investment Promotion Meeting, Mexico's two state development banks — Nacional Financiera (Nafin) and Banco Nacional de Comercio Exterior (Bancomext) — announced a scheme to mobilise over MXN 120 billion (~USD 6.9 billion) in financing for micro, small and medium enterprises (MiPyMEs) and strategic Plan México projects. The package channels public resources through credit, guarantees and co-investment mechanisms, including 70% credit guarantees up to MXN 20 million in priority sectors and 80% guarantees on first-time credits up to MXN 5 million, alongside reduced factoring interest rates and an additional MXN 40 billion Bancomext facility for industrial real estate. The scheme operationalises financing for the PODECOBI/PODECIBI economic development poles established under Mexico's 2025 Plan México decree.
President Luis Abinader signed Decreto No. 324-24 on 13 June 2024, declaring the promotion, innovation, and development of the semiconductor industry in the Dominican Republic as "alta prioridad nacional" (high national priority) and directing MICM to formulate a National Strategy for the Promotion of the Semiconductor Industry (ENFIS). The decree was published in the Official Gazette on 28 June 2024, establishing a high-level inter-ministerial coordination mechanism and linking the initiative to the free-trade-zone incentive framework under Law 8-90. ENFIS was formally launched on 19 August 2025 by President Abinader and MICM Minister Víctor Bisonó at the Día Nacional de las Zonas Francas, structuring the strategy across five pillars: Industrial Development, Governance and Policy, Workforce and Human Capital, Investment Attraction, and Innovation and R&D Ecosystem.
