Communiqué of the Intergovernmental Group of Twenty-Four on International Monetary Affairs and Development Communiqué April 15, 2005

I. Global Economic Prospects 1. Ministers welcome the continued global expansion, which is underpinned by generally supportive macroeconomic policies and benign financial conditions. They note that the expansion is driven mainly by strong growth in the United States, China, and most emerging market and developing countries. Ministers expect continued positive global growth in the near term, although they observe that its pace has moderated and that the balance of risks appears to be tilted to the downside. Key risks include the increasingly unbalanced nature of the global expansion, a tightening of financial market conditions, and a sharp increase and volatility in oil prices. Ministers also express concern about the widening global current account imbalances, which increases the risk of disruptive movements in the exchange rates of the major currencies and in interest rates. They value the stabilizing role that oil-exporting countries play in the oil market and underscore the importance of closer cooperation between importers and exporters to promote market stability. detalii

Communiqué of the Intergovernmental Group of Twenty-Four on International Monetary Affairs and Development October 1, 2004

I. GLOBAL ECONOMIC PROSPECTS 1. Ministers welcome the continued strengthening in global growth prospects, but note that significant downside risks remain, including ongoing large payments imbalances, the move toward a higher interest rate environment, the volatility of oil prices exacerbated by downstream supply constraints, and serious geopolitical concerns. Moreover, while economic growth has become increasingly broad-based, some regions continue to lag behind. In particular, growth in sub-Saharan Africa, while improving over the recent period, remains at levels inconsistent with achieving sustained poverty reduction and reaching the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs). detalii

They note that while economic activity has strengthened in several regions, the gains have been unevenly spread, with growth in sub-Saharan Africa in particular falling well short of the requirement for achieving sustained poverty reduction and reaching the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs). detalii

Joint Note on the Doha Development Agenda

The Doha and Monterrey declarations have been landmarks in the fight against poverty. A central message is that aid and trade must go hand in hand if the opportunities of globalization are to spread to the most needy-the one billion and more of humankind living in absolute poverty. Ensuring that poor people have every possible chance to participate in trade, and directing our assistance to enable them to do so, is not only morally right it also makes economic sense. detalii
