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.
The Government of Newfoundland and Labrador announced a CAD 25 million repayable loan to Braya Renewable Fuels to support the Come By Chance refinery's operational restart after a January-June 2025 shutdown caused by the expiry of US federal renewable-diesel tax credits. The loan offsets up to CAD 2 million/month of labour costs and up to CAD 1 million/month of eligible non-labour costs, capped at CAD 3 million monthly drawdown, with a five-year repayment term. It follows a similar CAD 49.5 million federal loan to the same facility in 2021 and a 2023 federal clean-fuels support package.
Brazil's national development bank BNDES approved BRL 400 million in financing (BRL 320m from the Fundo Clima climate fund plus BRL 80m via the Finem line) for Lwart Soluções Ambientais SA to expand its used/contaminated lubricating-oil (Oluc) re-refining plant in Lençóis Paulista, São Paulo. The BRL 713 million total project will raise annual Oluc processing capacity by 144,000 m³, making the plant the world's second-largest by processing capacity and displacing demand for virgin base oil imports.
On 24 July 2025 the European Investment Bank (EIB) and Italian energy major Eni signed a EUR 500 million (approx. USD 587.8 million) 15-year finance contract to support conversion of Eni's Livorno refinery in Tuscany into a biorefinery. The project adds a biogenic pre-treatment unit and a 500,000-tonne/year Ecofining(TM) plant able to produce HVO diesel, HVO naphtha and bio-LPG from waste and plant-residue feedstocks, with future flexibility to shift output toward sustainable aviation fuel (SAF). It is Eni's third domestic biorefinery conversion (after Venice and Gela) and part of Enilive's plan to reach 5+ million tonnes/year of biorefinery capacity by 2030. Global Trade Alert logged the financing as a "Red" (trade/investment-distorting) state loan.
