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 1 October 2026 the UK government designated 23 individuals and entities and 8 vessels under the Russia (Sanctions) (EU Exit) Regulations 2019. The package targets Russia's "war chest" financing via shadow-fleet LNG tankers evading sanctions, seven individuals spreading pro-Kremlin disinformation, eight people involved in the arbitrary detention and torture of Ukrainian civilians, and seven individuals involved in the militarisation and deportation of Ukrainian children. Designated persons are subject to UK asset freezes and travel bans; the eight vessels are added to the UK's shadow-fleet shipping-sanctions list.
On 30 September 2026 OFAC published a final rule (91 FR 61741) amending the Cuban Assets Control Regulations, 31 CFR part 515, to implement 2025 NSPM-5. It prohibits indirect financial transactions with entities and subentities on the State Department's Cuba Restricted List, adds an anti-evasion prohibition, removes the "U-Turn" funds-transfer general licence (§ 515.584(d)), and eliminates the group people-to-people travel and professional-meetings authorizations (grandfathering and wind-down provisions apply). Effective on publication.
On 22 September 2026 the Council of the European Union adopted Decision (CFSP) 2026/2161 amending Decision 2014/145/CFSP and Implementing Regulation (EU) 2026/2160 implementing Regulation (EU) No 269/2014, prolonging the asset-freeze / travel-ban regime on persons and entities undermining Ukraine's territorial integrity, sovereignty and independence for 36 months, to 22 September 2029, instead of the customary six-month cycle. Annex I is amended to delist Alisher Usmanov, Mikhail Fridman, Andrey Falaleev and the entity Redbird Corporate Services Ltd, to remove three deceased persons, and to update the entries of 104 individuals and 71 entities.
On 26 May 2026 the UK Office of Financial Sanctions Implementation (OFSI), part of HM Treasury, imposed a £1,000,920.59 monetary penalty on Sabre Global Technologies Limited (SGTL), a UK-registered travel-technology firm, for repeated breaches of UK financial sanctions. SGTL continued to provide Russian carrier Ural Airlines access to its Global Distribution System (GDS) service for seven months after Ural Airlines was designated by the UK in May 2022, and during July–August 2022 actively explored routing payments through a US bank account to avoid detection by its UK bank — the conduct that makes this the **first OFSI penalty issued for a circumvention offence**. At £1,000,921 this is also OFSI's **largest financial-sanctions penalty since Russia's 2022 invasion of Ukraine**, surpassing the prior record (HSF £465k).
