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 4 December 2025, OFAC assessed a near-statutory-maximum civil monetary penalty of USD 7,139,305 against Gracetown Inc., a New York-based property-management company, for 24 apparent violations of Russia-related sanctions under EO 13660, EO 13661, and EO 14024 between April 2018 and May 2020, and for separately failing to report blocked assets for over 45 months in violation of 31 CFR §501.603. Gracetown was established in 2006 to manage three luxury real-estate properties in Manhattan and Washington DC ultimately owned by sanctioned Russian oligarch Oleg Deripaska; after Deripaska's April 2018 SDN designation — which OFAC communicated directly to Gracetown — the company continued processing 24 payments totalling USD 31,250 on behalf of a Deripaska-linked British Virgin Islands entity (Baufinanz). OFAC found the violations egregious and not voluntarily self-disclosed, driving the penalty to 80% of the USD 8,906,358 statutory ceiling; the ratio of penalty (USD 7.14M) to underlying transaction value (USD 31,250) underscores OFAC's strict liability approach to post-notice dealings.
On 24 November 2025, OFAC assessed a civil monetary penalty of USD 4,677,552 — the statutory maximum and the largest single OFAC penalty ever imposed against an individual — against an Atlanta-based real-estate investor operating through King Holdings LLC. Between April 2023 and March 2024 the respondent willfully purchased, mortgaged, renovated, and resold US residential property beneficially owned by a family member of a Russian oligarch sanctioned under EO 14024, in direct violation of a prior OFAC cease-and-desist order and in defiance of an administrative subpoena. OFAC found the violations egregious and non-self-disclosed; both aggravating factors drove the penalty to the statutory ceiling.
