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 31 October 2025, Brazil's federal innovation-financing company FINEP (Financiadora de Estudos e Projetos, under the Ministry of Science, Technology and Innovation) announced a new R$1 billion (~USD 182 million) tranche of Fundo Nacional de Desenvolvimento Científico e Tecnológico (FNDCT) resources for the Inovacred decentralized-credit line, with project submissions opening 3 November 2025. At least R$300 million of the tranche is earmarked for companies in the North, Northeast and Center-West regions. The measure is a domestic reimbursable-credit subsidy supporting innovation projects nationwide rather than a border instrument, channelled through roughly 30 accredited financial agents.
On 3 July 2025, Bavaria's state development bank LfA Förderbank Bayern replaced its "Innovationskredit 4.0" programme with two successor state loan products: "Innovationskredit" for innovative products, processes, services and business models, and "Digitalisierungskredit" for digitalization investment and related working capital. Loans run up to EUR 7.5 million at the base funding level and up to EUR 15 million at the two higher levels, with repayment subsidies of 1-2% at the base level and eligibility for a further ERP subsidy of up to 5% (via KfW) at the higher levels. Eligible borrowers are companies and freelancers with annual revenue up to EUR 500 million, though the base Digitalisierungskredit level is restricted to SMEs; financing can cover up to 100% of project cost over maturities of up to 10 years.
Brazil's public innovation-financing agency FINEP approved R$164.1 million (~USD 29 million) in reimbursable financing on 9 June 2025 for Volare Veículos, the bus-manufacturing unit of the Marcopolo group, to develop a new continuous-line production process for a 100% domestically-engineered electric bus (own body and chassis). The FINEP tranche, drawn from the FNDCT federal science-and-technology fund, covers 70% of the R$234.5 million total project scope, with Marcopolo supplying the remaining R$70.3 million as counterpart funding. Approved under the "FINEP Mais Inovação" program with a two-year validity, the project will be executed at Marcopolo's São Mateus (Espírito Santo) plant and is expected to create ~500 jobs.
Brazil's federal innovation-financing agency FINEP (Financiadora de Estudos e Projetos) signed an Economic Grant Agreement with EVE Soluções de Mobilidade Aérea Urbana Ltda. ("Eve Brazil"), the Embraer subsidiary developing an electric vertical take-off and landing (eVTOL) aircraft, agreeing to grant up to BRL 90,000,000.00 (~USD 15.96 million) in non-repayable economic subsidy funding for a project to build out Brazil's sustainable air-mobility ecosystem around eVTOL technology. Eve Brazil must contribute a minimum of BRL 100,760,797.26 (~USD 17.87 million) of its own resources, and the combined ~BRL 190.8 million project must use the funds within 36 months of signing or forfeit unused installments.
