The first G20 FMCBG meeting under the G20 Indian Presidency will see the participation of finance ministers and Central Bank Governors of the G20 members, invitee members and heads of international organisations.
The meeting will be spread over three sessions during the next two days, covering issues such as strengthening multilateral development banks to address shared global challenges of the 21st century, financing for resilient, inclusive and sustainable 'cities of tomorrow', leveraging Digital Public Infrastructure (DPI) for advancing financial inclusion and productivity gains.
The sessions will also cover issues related to the global economy, global health and international taxation.
