Noting the downward pressure which continues in the global economy, Chinese Deputy Finance Minister Zhu Guangyao says they anticipate issues related to global growth will dominate the discussions in Hangzhou.

He says this is something that has already been discussed among finance ministers and central bank governors from the various G20 countries during previous sessions in China.

"During the first G20 Finance Ministers and Central Bank Governors Meeting held this year in Shanghai, finance ministers and central bank governors unanimously agreed that monetary¹ and fiscal² policies and structural³ reform should be implemented⁴ in an integrated manner by individual G20 members and G20 as a whole. They will submit their propositions to the Summit. "

Zhu Guangyao also notes the most recent meeting among G20 finance and central bank chiefs last month in Chengdu also ratified⁵ a series of policy proposals covering structural reforms new guidelines.

He says that report will be delivered to the G20 Summit as well.

Chinese officials, briefing the media in Beijing on Monday, also say the concept of "Green Finance" will also be up for discussion in Hangzhou.

"Green Finance" refers to finding a balance among environmental protection, investment and financing.

Yi Gang, vice⁶ governor of the People's Bank of China, says report covering "Green Finance" is also due to be delivered to the G20 Summit.

"This year, China first put forward the concept of 'Green Finance' and listed it on the G20 agenda. It also established the Green Finance Study Group. During the Hangzhou Summit, the first report on Green Finance will be ratified, clarifying the definition, objective, scope and the upcoming challenges."

Finance ministers and central bank governors from the G20 nations have also reached agreements on a variety of other issues connected to the global economy, the broader design of international finance, investment, infrastructure⁷ and financial sector⁸ reform.

This year's G20 sessions will take place in Hangzhou on September 4th and 5th.
