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 Asian Development Bank signed a USD 50 million (approximately CNY 353.63 million) green loan with Shouguang Luli Wood Inc, a subsidiary of China's Luli Group and one of the country's largest oriented strand board (OSB) producers, to finance construction of a new OSB factory, associated facilities, and a captive biomass power plant in Jiangxi Province, plus working capital. Global Trade Alert logs the transaction as a "red" (certainly harmful) state-linked lending-support intervention on the standard grounds that below-market multilateral development-bank financing to a named commercial producer competing internationally is a potential trade- and competition-distorting subsidy. ADB frames the project around circular-economy forestry: the OSB furnish is sourced from wood waste, branches, and smallholder-grown fast-rotation timber (~10% bamboo) rather than old-growth timber, with production waste fuelling the on-site biomass plant.
Korea's Ministry of Economy and Finance (MOEF) has imposed a provisional anti-dumping duty of 11.92–19.43% on fibreboard (wood- or other ligneous-fibre panels, thickness ≤5mm, used in furniture, interior construction fittings and packaging) imported from Thailand, effective from 28 November 2025, following a Korea Trade Commission (KTC) preliminary determination of dumping and material injury. On 12 February 2026 the KTC's 469th commission meeting issued its final determination confirming injury and voted to recommend a 5-year definitive anti-dumping duty of 15.29–22.44% to the Minister of Economy and Finance. As of this filing MOEF had not yet gazetted the definitive rate; the 11.92–19.43% provisional schedule remains the only legally operative rate. The investigation was opened on a petition by Korean fibreboard producer Unid BT Plus (유니드비티플러스).
