India in the G20: Macroeconomic Policy Coordination, Regulation and Global Governance

The G20 has assumed a leading role in responding to the current financial crisis and reforming the international financial system. The emergence of the G20 as the premier forum for the discussion of these issues means that India occupies an even more important place on the international stage than it did before the crisis. It is essential that India plays an active role in the global debate on how to resolve the current crisis and prevent the recurrence of similar crises in the future.

CEPR and the National Council of Applied Economic Research (NCAER) therefore organised a conference on "India in the G20: Macro policy coordination, financial sector regulation and global reforms" in New Delhi on June 1, 2009. The conference aimed to stimulate a dialogue between European and Indian researchers on these issues, in order to complement and enrich the ongoing discussions among officials in the G20.
