Population of EA19, US and BRICS as share of world population
EA19 (lhs) US (lhs) BRICS (rhs)
Financial crisis demonstrated global interdependence
Financial crisis, starting as a housing bust in the US,
demonstrated clearly how integrated the world is
• Spillovers not only via economic channel, but
also via financial transmission channel and
confidence effects
• Financial capital flows and monetary stability
policy have a global dimension
• Close cooperation between policy makers is
essential to preserve the current highly flexible
international monetary system
3
Financial crisis affected institutional setup of global governance: G7 vs. G20
Starting in 2008-2009: Shifts in international institutional landscape to address crisis, for example:
• G20 elevated to Leaders level, now key global forum
• Creation of FSB
• Tripling of IMF resources
4
Example of China: taking on a larger role
Increased role for China in the region / world through, for example:
• Silk road and OBOR initiatives
• New forum / institutions (BRICS: NDB + AIIB)
• Internationalisation of the RMB / inclusion into the SDR basket
• Active stance in global governance: G20 Presidency 2016
5
Economic cooperation and coordination remain key
• Fragile and uneven recovery calls for action
using all policy tools, to foster strong, sustainableand balanced growth (G20 FWG)
• Strengthening the stability and resilience of the IMS
improving IMFs tool kit, a more effectivecooperation with regional safety nets (G20 IFA, IMF)
6
Operationalising the three-pronged strategy a challenge
Agreement that monetary policy cannot alone do the job, but thenwhat… With different outlook and 'ideological differences' for the role of fiscal policies ongoing, the focus is on
Composition and efficiency of public finances and on
Structural reforms
7
Can G20 continue to take the lead in shaping the policy response ?
