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 24 September 2026 the Ministry of Commerce's Department of Foreign Trade issued notice 商贸农函〔2026〕163号 publicising, for public comment, the proposed list of 42 enterprises to receive a redistribution of China's 2026 sugar import tariff-rate quota. The public-notice period runs 24-30 September 2026; objections to an applicant's eligibility are to be sent in writing to the Department. The notice and its annex do not state the redistributed volume, per-company allocations or any tariff rate.
On 23 September 2026 USTR announced the final country allocations of the FY2027 WTO tariff-rate quota for imported raw cane sugar. The total quota is 1,117,195 metric tons raw value (MTRV), the WTO minimum commitment; 1,061,202 MTRV was allocated by notice of 24 July 2026 (91 FR 46822) and the remaining 55,993 MTRV is distributed to additional countries in this announcement. In-quota quantities may enter the United States from 1 October 2026, and allocations to net sugar-importing countries require origin documentation and certificates of quota eligibility.
The Department of Food & Public Distribution raised the sugar stock-holding limit for bulk consumers — entities producing or consuming more than 10 tonnes of sugar per month — from 15 days to 30 days of consumption, effective immediately ahead of the festive season. The doubled ceiling applies only to sugar sourced under the Advance Authorisation Scheme (AAS) or Tariff Rate Quota (TRQ) import routes; stock bought on the open market remains capped at 15 days. Covered consumers must now file a weekly stock declaration every Friday on the DFPD's foodstock.dfpd.gov.in portal.
