Greatest challenge to world economy in modern times *

We face the greatest challenge to the world economy in modern times; a crisis which has deepened since we last met, which affects the lives of women, men, and children in every country, and which all countries must join together to resolve. A global crisis requires a global solution. (#15413)

Restoring growth and jobs *º

Pledged to whatever is necessary to restore confidence, growth and jobs. (#15319)

Strengthening financial supervision and regulation *

Major failures in the financial sector and in financial regulation and supervision were fundamental causes of the crisis. Confidence will not be restored until we rebuild trust in our financial system. (#15321)

Strengthening our global financial institutions *

Pledge to fund and reform our international financial institutions to overcome this crisis and prevent future ones. (#15322)

Resisting protectionism and promoting global trade and investment *º

Pledge to promote global trade and investment and reject protectionism, to underpin prosperity. (#15323)

Ensuring a fair and sustainable recovery for all *

Determined to lay the foundation for a fair and sustainable world economy. Current crisis has a disproportionate impact on the vulnerable in the poorest countries and we have collective responsibility to mitigate the social impact of the crisis to minimise long-lasting damage to global potential.
