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.
OFAC added four Cuban state-owned nickel-sector enterprises to the SDN List under Executive Order 14404 — Centro de Investigaciones del Níquel (CEDINIQ), Empresa de Ingeniería y Proyectos del Níquel (CEPRONIQUEL), a technical/computing services entity (SERCONI), and Pinares S.A. — alongside three individual Cuban-national designations and a parallel round of military-modernization-linked designations. The action, publicised as "Further Sanctions on Cuba's Mineral Wealth and Military Modernization Apparatus," blocks all US-person transactions and freezes US-touching assets of the named entities, targeting the research, engineering and technical-services layer behind Cuba's nickel extraction and processing industry.
