G20 & IMF Washington Meeting
Financial chiefs and IMF countries from across the world met to tackle an escalating global economy.
G20 meetings are often the source of heightened market speculation, yet the latest gathering has simply drifted under the radar of many market analysts, offering limited resolve. Overshadowed by an unfolding European debt saga and recessionary growth levels, market movement is becoming increasingly aligned with immediate economic indicators as traders grapple to sustain positions. Binary options can be used to trade on economic events.
Despite offering an outlet for global collaboration, with full integration of IMF's 187 countries – the collective failed to agree to any market making change, merely setting the foundations in place for ongoing debate. BRICS, a group representing the emerging economies of Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa despite taking the initiative to seek out potential suggestions to support the flailing Euro Zone, failed to reach any progressive conclusions or to offer assistance.
The group failed to agree on a financial taxation method that could be used to fuel aid for developing countries. France and Germany failed to gain support from the collective, despite the Gates Foundation report presenting a realistic argument in favor of a financial transactions tax. Not surprisingly a sacrificial attitude towards a collective initiative that appears to be suffocating growth failed to materialize in the current climate.
In contrast a last push by central banks to dampen regulation was put to bed by financial regulators, change related to international regulation remains on course. The banks failed to garner support from international regulators.
The meeting also saw the departure of Russian finance minister Alexei Kudrin. His departure will come as a blow for those closely allied to his fiscal measures. Kudrin's attitude towards fiscal policy and oil revenue savings gained significant rapport from the G20 collective. Kudrin confirmed he will not be taking a position within the next Russian government. Kudrin has a noticeably different stance on economic policy from the next Russian successor to power President Dmitry Medvedev and he cited this difference in opinion as his reason for removing himself from the Russian financial scene.
Without a doubt, G20 succeeded on touching upon key issues across the globe, but surface discussions are no longer important to faltering markets.
