What Is the Group of 20 (G20)?

The Group of 20 (G20) is a premier international forum for governments and central bank governors from 19 countries and the European Union, focusing on global economic governance. Established in 1999, the G20 aims to foster international financial stability and promote sustainable economic growth. It addresses key issues such as global trade, investment, innovation, climate change, and development. The G20 members represent the world’s largest economies, encompassing both developed and emerging nations, making up about 85% of global GDP and two-thirds of the world’s population. Through annual summits and ongoing dialogue, the G20 plays a vital role in coordinating policies that contribute to global economic resilience and inclusive growth.
