    1. DRIVING THE GROWTH

    OF THE GLOBAL ECONOMY:

    THE ROLE OF THE G20

  • 8/12/2019 Brochure G20 Russia Eng (1)

    9/24

    THE RUSSIAN PRESIDENCY OF THE G20: OUTLINE 9

    Global economy continues to grow at a subdued

    pace. In the advanced economies, risks seem

    largely sel-inflicted and can only be resolved

    through political compromise. Te fiscal cliff

    in the U.S. has turned into a cliff-hanger. I an

    appropriate solution is not reached to avert it, the

    economys improving undamentals could be sty-

    mied in 2013. At the same time, a balanced resolu-

    tion o the budget impasse could accelerate next

    years growth momentum.

    Economic equilibrium and growth in the Euro-

    zone can only be achieved through sustainable

    resolution o the debt crisis. Te region is in a

    tightening vise, caught between fiscal austerity

    and opposing parties limited commitment to

    alternatives (whether monetary or political). Soar, the worst effects have been avoided, but there

    is a need to continue implementing a long-term

    strategy.

    Emerging economies growth expectations are be-

    ing adjusted to these new global realities and to

    the shifs in their own domestic trends. Never-

    theless, they remain vulnerable to a growing list

    o economic and geopolitical uncertainties. As a

    result, conditions and prospects in certain regions

    continue to diverge.

    Te global recovery remains extremely ragile

    with weak, unbalanced growth and large down-

    side risks. o provide an adequate response, con-

    certed international efforts must be directed at

    addressing these vulnerabilities and ensuring that

    governments implement the required policies to

    restore inclusive and sustainable growth. Te G20

    has played an important role during the crisis and

    is looked upon or guidance in turbulent times.

    Russia is convinced that we should embrace this

    responsibility. Complacency must give way to re-

    doubled efforts to affirm the G20s status as one

    the most important global ora, and to ensure that

    the G20 is capable o leading by example.

    Te G20 has repeatedly shown its solidarity and

    efficiency in sending positive signals in times ounolding economic turmoil. Now it is high time

    or us to recognize the significance o multilateral

    coordination at a time when a new wave o the cri-

    sis is imminent, but has yet to emerge. Moreover,

    positioning the G20 as the worlds premier orum

    or economic cooperation requires joint efforts in

    the interests o our people as a steering group or

    the global economy with a broader vision, rather

    than in the mode o a short-term crisis manager.

    In our view, the most valuable contribution rom

    the G20 in this sense would be to demonstrate

    the political will, intellectual wisdom and practi-

    cal readiness to find efficient solutions. Te con-

    crete orm such a demonstration could be is in the

    G20s commitments on policy coordination, and

    strict compliance with them.

    2. PRIORITY AREAS AND GENERAL

    APPROACHES OF THE RUSSIAN

    PRESIDENCY OF THE G20

  • 8/12/2019 Brochure G20 Russia Eng (1)

    11/24

    THE RUSSIAN PRESIDENCY OF THE G20: OUTLINE 11

    Te core objective o the Russian Presidency is

    to concentrate the efforts o the G20 the orum

    o the worlds largest economies on developing

    a set o measures aimed at boosting sustainable,

    inclusive and balanced growth and jobs creation

    around the world.

    Prospects o weak global growth lie at the root o

    several o the worlds economic problems, includ-

    ing a deterioration o fiscal outlooks and bank

    balance sheets. Low confidence levels are affect-

    ing private consumption and investment, having

    a negative effect on employment. Te structure o

    the G20 work program or 2013 will address these

    challenges.

    Russia is convinced, that common goals o shared

    global growth can be attained, and restored con-

    fidence can be established among different ele-

    ments o the global economy. We believe that re-

    invigorating economic growth basing on a solidoundation o intensified financing or investment

    is the key goal or our combined uture efforts, as

    well as or measures adopted unilaterally.

    Addressing major challenges to global economy is

    a traditional ocus o the G20 agenda. Putting the

    growth as the main goal o the Russian G20 Presi-

    dency, we will ensure continuity o the dialogue,

    and attach extra impetus to the G20 discussion,

    acilitating urther implementation o the G20

    commitments and building on the achieved re-

    sults. Te overall agenda or the G20 in 2013 com-

    prises both the legacy rom previous Presidencies

    and several new ideas proposed by Russia. Russian

    points o emphasis in the traditional areas o the

    G20 activities will be clearly viewed.

    Te discussion o the whole range o the closely

    intertwined items o the G20 agenda has been

    planned around the three overarching priorities,

    all ocused on igniting a new cycle o economic

    growth. We also look upon them as the three

    watchwords or the Russian G20 Presidency:

    Growth through quality jobs and investment;

    Growth through trust and transparency;

    Growth through effective regulation.

    Tese 3 priorities o the Russian Presidency will

    serve as a lens through which we propose to con-

    sider and discuss the G20 agenda in 2013, com-

    prising eight areas o the primary ocus o public

    attention:

    (1) Framework or strong, sustainable and bal-

    anced growth;

    (2) Jobs and employment;

    (3) International financial architecture reorm;

    (4) Strengthening financial regulation;

    (5) Energy sustainability;

    (6) Development or all;

    (7) Enhancing multilateral trade;

    (8) Fighting corruption.

    o support the Russian Presidencys ocus on

    boosting economic growth and job creation, two

    new topics will be proposed or discussion, in-

    cluding Financing or investment and Govern-

    ment borrowing and public debt sustainability.

  • 8/12/2019 Brochure G20 Russia Eng (1)

    12/24

    12

    We believe the proposed approach could yield

    tangible results, establishing a solid base or ad-

    dressing all the issues on the agenda. We as well

    recognize the importance o establishing well-

    structured dialogue to enhance the working pro-cess and come to tangible results.

    In terms o the working process, Russia counsels

    prudent orientation and pragmatism or the G20

    process, and advocates streamlining the working

    ormats and activities to ensure result-oriented

    perormance.

    Accordingly, during its Presidency year Russia

    intends to limit the scope o ministerial involve-

    ment in the G20 processes to the traditional

    meetings o Finance Ministers and Central Bank

    Governors. However, on a single occasion the

    Presidencys innovation in the orm o a joint

    meeting o Finance and Labour Ministers will be

    put on trial. For the first time the G20 Ministerso Labour and Finance will meet to increase the

    easibility o the measures developed to acilitate

    job creation.

    In 2013, Russia is planning to lead the G20 in

    close cooperation with Mexico and Australia, its

    partnering economies in the roika. We view the

    legacy o Mexico, our predecessor, as highly rel-

    evant to Russias objectives in 2013, and we will

    proactively share our experience with our Austra-

    lian successors.

    THE RUSSIAN PRESIDENCY OF THE G20: OUTLINE 13

    Finally, the result-oriented approach promoted

    by Russia or the G20 requires extensive consul-

    tations with a very broad range o external stake-

    holders. By enhancing our Outreach dialogue with

    non-G20 states, international organizations (with

    a special ocus on engaging the United Nations),

    business circles, labour unions, civil society, uture

    leaders, academia and think-tanks, we will not

    only ensure legitimacy, transparency and efficiency

    o the G20, but also expand our vision, come up

    with better solutions, and generate cross-sectoral

    synergy to enhance the public benefit o the G20.

    A durable solution to the challenges presently

    aced by the global economy requires effective pol-

    icy measures. Te narration that ollows contains

    brie introduction into the priority topics outlaidby Russia or the G20 in 2013.

    I. Framework for Strong,Sustainable and BalancedGrowth and Financingfor Investment

    a. Global Economic Outlook and Imple-

    mentation of the G20 Framework for

    Strong, Sustainable and Balanced

    Growth

    Decisive actions have been undertaken by G20 to

    restore and strengthen global growth and to put

    it on the sustainable path. Nevertheless, global

    economic recovery is still ragile and large down-

    side risks to the outlook remain, thus spurring the

    need or in-depth analysis o economic policies

    and well-coordinated actions o the G20s mem-ber economies.

    One o the priorities o the Russian Presidency is

    to address this problem through urther develop-

    ment o the Framework or Strong, Sustainable

    and Balanced Growth. Te Framework Working

    Group (FWG) will address the ollowing topics:

    Revision o country-specific medium- and

    long-term public debt targets and develop

    strategies to achieve them;

    Enhancement o the Accountability Assess-

    ment Process by extending the number o

    indicators to enable more comprehensive and

    precise macroeconomic analysis;

    Analysis o the persistent imbalances among

    the G20 members in fiscal, monetary, ex-

    change rate and structural policy domains.

    At least two group meetings are planned or Janu-

    ary and July o 2013, complemented by conerence

    calls. By the end o the year the FWG aims at deliv-

    ering the G20 Saint Petersburg Action Plan, which

    will assess key global risks or sustainable growth

    and set out policy actions that should be taken by

    member countries to mitigate these risks. An up-

    dated report on the persistent imbalances in theG20 economies, as well as an enhanced Account-

    ability Assessment ramework, and a review o the

    progress on the previous G20 commitments will

    also be presented.

    b. Financing for Investment

    Financing or investment is a key precondition or

    economic growth and a principal actor or job

    creation. However, ollowing the global economic

    and financial crisis o recent years, the levels o

    various types o investment have declined signifi-

    cantly, especially in the developed countries. Te

    main task o the G20 is to oster such an environ-

    ment that would be more conducive to financing

    or investment and identiying new sources or

    long-term investment in the current global eco-

    nomic landscape, in order to contribute to strong,

    sustainable and balanced growth. Te Russian

    Presidency is planning to provide room or ruit-

    ul discussion on possible ways and practicalsteps to increase the amounts and effectiveness

    o financing or investment. We suggest analyzing

    public policy in this sphere, the role o private-

    public partnerships (PPPs) and non-traditional

    sources o long-term financing, debt and equity

    markets, as well as FDIs. Te G20 efforts will be

    ocused on the impact o the financial regulatory

    reorms on financing or investment, banking sec-

    tor capabilities and barriers, multilateral and na-

    tional development banks, international reserves,

    among others. Jointly with a large group o major

  • 8/12/2019 Brochure G20 Russia Eng (1)

    14/24

    14

    international organizations (World Bank, IMF,

    OECD, FSB, UN, etc.) the G20 will exert much e-

    ort, which might lead to the ollowing results to

    be presented at the G20 summit in September:

    Strengthened public policy and improving

    PPP in terms o promoting financing or in-

    vestment;

    Elaborated measures to support investments

    in small-and-medium enterprises and start-

    up businesses;

    Measures to meet capitalization needs o

    global banks;

    Recommendations on regulatory changesthat would bring about change in banking

    business models towards unding the real

    economy;

    Analysis o the role o possible sources o fi-

    nancing or investment (institutional inves-

    tors, equity markets, government guarantees);

    Analysis o FDI trends, patterns and impact to

    maximize their growth enhancing capacity;

    Recommendations on how to increase MDBs

    lending capacity.

    II. Jobs and Employment

    Active steps undertaken by the G20 countries to

    overcome the negative consequences o the global

    financial and economic crisis have led to improv-ing labour market conditions in most countries.

    However unemployment and under-employment

    are still on the rise in some countries, creating se-

    vere strain on workers and their amilies. One o

    the priorities o the Russian Presidency is to over-

    come this problem by acilitating job creation. Te

    ask Force on Employment (EF) will lead the e-

    ort to address the ollowing topics:

    Job creation through sound monetary and

    fiscal policies, structural policies to oster

    innovation and promotion o smaller enter-

    prises;

    Labour activation or the vulnerable groups;

    Monitoring o labour market development

    and progress on the previous G20 commit-

    ments.

    Tree ask Force meetings are planned: in Febru-

    ary, June and October 2013. A special meeting o

    Ministers o Labour jointly with Ministers o Fi-

    nance is organized in July. By the end o the year,

    the EF aspires to deliver:

    A declaration o the G20s Labour Ministers;

    A database o best practice policies to acili-

    tate job creation and labour activation;

    A set o recommendations on policies to

    stimulate job creation and labour activation;

    A progress report on implementation o the G20

    commitments related to youth employment.

    III . International FinancialArchitecture Reform

    Te recent global financial crisis has revealed gaps

    and deficiencies in the International Financial

    Architecture (IFA). Addressing these gaps is one

    o the main priorities o the G20. IFA Reorm is a

    topic that includes a wide range o issues:

    Governance and legitimacy o the interna-tional financial institutions;

    Presence and efficiency o multilateral stan-

    dards, guidelines and recommendations;

    Issues o global liquidity, capital flows, re-

    serve currencies, exchange rates, etc.

    IFA Reorm should lay the oundation or a

    stronger global economy and achieve a well-

    balanced and eicient IFA to prevent the next

  • 8/12/2019 Brochure G20 Russia Eng (1)

    15/24

    THE RUSSIAN PRESIDENCY OF THE G20: OUTLINE 15

    crisis. o do that the Russian Presidency pro-

    poses to work towards urther increasing the e-

    iciency and legitimacy o the IMF governance

    structure. he implementation o the IMFs

    2010 Quota and Governance Reorm will be

    particularly challenging. It will secure doubling

    the IMF quota resources and reviewing the IMF

    quota ormula in order to adequately relect the

    current weights o its members. We will also

    work on strengthening the IMF surveillance

    ramework and multilateral analysis, including

    the assessment o spillover eects and develop-

    ing global liquidity indicators. he G20 will also

    be encouraged to continue working on urther

    development o the Regional Financial Arrange-

    ments and strengthening o their cooperation

    with the IMF. Continuing the implementationo the G20 Action plan to support development

    o local currency bond markets will also be an

    important topic. In this context the Russian

    Presidency will deepen work on government

    borrowing and public sustainability issues. he

    IFA Working Group aspires to achieve the ol-

    lowing results by the end o 2013:

    Completed IMF 2010 Quota and Gover-

    nance reorm;

    Te review o the IMF quota ormula and

    implementation o the 15-th general review

    o quotas by January 2014;

    Progress in developing global liquidity

    indicators;

    Completed implementation o the Action

    Plan to support the development o local

    currency markets;

    Further development o RFA and establish-

    ment o close cooperation between them and

    the IMF;

    Reviewed Guidelines or Public Debt

    Management, which were introduced by

    the IMF and World Bank or the irst time

    in 2001.

    IV. Strengthening FinancialRegulation

    o prevent the resumption o the world crisis it is

    important to strengthen financial regulation. One

    o the G20s main tasks is to solve this problem by

    providing the Financial Stability Board (FSB) with

    avorable conditions to carry out its reorms. Te

    FSB will lead a group o international standard

    setting bodies in an effort to address the ollowing

    topics:

    Monitoring o Basel III implementation

    among its members;

    Adoption o the methodology or the selec-

    tion o, and apply a supervisory regime to,domestic systemically important financial in-

    stitutions (D-SIFIs);

    Promotion o shadow banking regulation;

    Development o the global legal entity identi-

    fier (LEI) system;

    Reduction o mechanistic reliance on Credit

    Rating Agency (CRA) ratings;

    Completion o the over-the-counter deriva-

    tives reorm;

    Completion o the FSB transormation into

    a ull-fledged international organization and

    specification o its internal governance rules

    and procedures.

    Te working plan will be closely linked to the key

    G20 events and the current FSB activities. By theG20 Saint Petersburg Summit we expect to have

    in place:

    Te institutionalization process or FSB;

    Further development and monitoring o the

    too-big-to-ail regulatory ramework, in-

    cluding a peer review o the FSBs recovery

    plans and cooperation agreements or all

    global SIFIs and the implementation o iden-

    tification principles and prudential measures

  • 8/12/2019 Brochure G20 Russia Eng (1)

    16/24

    16

    relating to domestic systemically important

    banks (D-SIBs);

    Adoption o policy recommendations to

    strengthen regulation o the shadow banking

    sector

    Preliminary results o the launch o the global

    legal entity identifier (LEI) system.

    V. Energy Sustainability

    Energy sector is a crucial growth engine or G20

    members and the world economy as a whole and

    a key to unlocking world sustainable develop-ment. Te Energy Sustainability Working Group

    (ESWG) will lead the effort to address the ollow-

    ing topics:

    Making energy and commodity markets

    transparent and more predictable;

    Promoting energy efficiency and green

    growth;

    Sound regulation or energy inrastructure;

    Ensuring global protection o the marine

    environment.

    wo ESWG meetings are planned at least or

    February and June o 2013. Tey will be comple-

    mented by extensive consultations throughout

    the year. By the end o 2013 the ESWG aspires

    to deliver:

    Finance Ministers progress report on the

    G20s contribution to enhancing transpar-

    ency and unctioning o international com-

    modity and energy markets;

    Recommendations or setting up a rame-

    work or orecasting commodity market

    volatility;

    Draf principles or efficient energy markets

    regulation to stimulate inrastructure invest-

    ments and integrate green growth and sus-

    tainable development priorities into struc-

    tural policies;

    Recommendations on the voluntary peer re-

    view process or ossil-uel subsidies;

    A progress report on JODI-oil, and an initial

    overview o the launch o JODI-gas;

    A draf plan or a best practice database o

    green energy and energy efficiency policies

    and management approaches used by mem-

    bers o the G20;

    A ully operational GMEP website as a tool to

    implement the Global marine environmentprotection initiative.

    VI. Development for All

    Building inrastructure and providing inclusive ac-

    cess to basic amenities are required to spur econom-

    ic growth. Tereore, the Russian Presidency has

    positioned development as one o its priorities. Te

    Development Working Group (DWG) is planning

    to structure its work around the ollowing topics:

    Food security with a ocus on agricultural

    production increase and undernutrition;

    Human resource development with a ocus

    on a global skills database;

    Financial inclusion with a ocus on financial

    literacy and access to financial services bywomen, migrants and the youth;

    Inrastructure with a ocus on long-term

    financing;

    Active participation in creating a post-2015

    development agenda;

    Development o an accountability mecha-

    nism to assess progress on the previous G20

    commitments.

    THE RUSSIAN PRESIDENCY OF THE G20: OUTLINE 17

    Te group is planning to meet our times: in Feb-

    ruary, May, July and October o 2013. By the G20

    Summit the DWG aspires to prepare draf Saint

    Petersburg Development Action Plan and G20

    Development Working Group Accountability Re-

    port to be endorsed by the Leaders.

    VII. Enhancing MultilateralTrade

    Hardly could anyone argue that mutually ben-

    eficial trade policies are crucial or ast global

    recovery. One o the Russian Presidency priori-

    ties is to strengthen multilateral cooperation in

    order to find global solutions to the current eco-nomic difficulties and risks, and to avoid situa-

    tions that create trade tensions among the G20

    countries. Progress in the Doha negotiations is

    also vital to meet these goals. With these consid-

    erations in mind, the G20 needs to push orward

    the strong demand or developing trade and in-

    vestment as a growth driver, and the strong mul-

    tilateral trading system as a necessary condition

    or it. oday we are expected to contribute to

    finding ways to solve the issues on the Doha

    round agenda and lead the effort to address the

    ollowing issues:

    Curbing protectionism;

    Strengthening and development o the multi-

    lateral trade system;

    Global value chains.

    A wide range o joint activities o the G20 andother relevant international ora are scheduled

    or 2013 with major checkpoints in July (release

    o the 9th WO OECD UNCAD Report on the

    G20 rade and Investment Measures) and De-

    cember (WO Ministerial conerence). Beore

    the Leaders Summit in Saint Petersburg will be

    presented:

    A reflection on the 9th WO OECD UNC-

    AD Report on the G20 rade and Invest-

    ment Measures;

    Bries on addressing protectionism and

    strengthening the multilateral trade system.

    VIII. Fighting Corruption

    Corruption is a great obstacle or effective growth

    o the global economy. One o the main priorities

    o the Russian Presidency is to fight corruption in

    an efficient and intransigent manner. Te Anti-

    Corruption Working Group (ACWG) will con-
