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.
Vietnam issued Decree 182/2024/ND-CP on 31 December 2024, establishing the Investment Support Fund (ISF) to provide direct cash subsidies for high-tech enterprises and R&D centers. The decree offers up to 50% of initial investment costs for semiconductor and AI R&D projects meeting qualifying thresholds. The ISF is managed by the Ministry of Planning and Investment, with support available for operating costs, fixed asset investments, workforce training, and high-tech product manufacturing.
President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr. signed Republic Act No. 12066 — the CREATE MORE Act ("Corporate Recovery and Tax Incentives for Enterprises to Maximize Opportunities for Reinvigorating the Economy") — on 11 November 2024, with the law taking effect on 28 November 2024. RA 12066 amends the 2021 CREATE Act (RA 11534) to extend the maximum tax-incentive availment for Registered Business Enterprises from 17 to 27 years, cuts the corporate income tax to 20% for RBEs under the Enhanced Deductions Regime (vs the standard 25% / SCIT 5%), grants a 100% additional power-expense deduction (raised from 50%) for manufacturers, expands VAT zero-rating and import VAT-exemption for export-oriented enterprises, raises the IPA approval threshold from PHP 1bn to PHP 15bn, and institutionalises work-from-home for ecozone/freeport RBEs.
On 21 September 2024 Prime Minister Phạm Minh Chính signed Decision No. 1018/QĐ-TTg approving Vietnam's first national strategy for semiconductor industry development through 2030 with vision to 2050. The strategy is built around the "C = SET + 1" formula (Chip = Specialised + Electronics + Talent + Vietnam) and sets a three-phase roadmap: ≥100 design firms / ≥10 ATP plants / 1 fab and USD 25bn semiconductor revenue by 2030; ≥200 design firms / ≥15 ATP plants / 2 fabs and USD 50bn revenue by 2040; ≥300 design firms / ≥20 ATP plants / 3 fabs and USD 100bn revenue by 2050. It also targets training of 50,000 semiconductor engineers by 2030 and designates the Ministries of Information & Communications, Planning & Investment, and Science & Technology as lead agencies.
