B20 Statement for Open Markets and Inclusive Growth
The business community in G20 economies is strongly concerned about the rise in protectionism around the world and the increasing opposition to trade. These concerns cannot be simply dismissed but Governments must not resort to quick-fix solutions resulting in increased barriers to trade and investment. As Chair of the B20 Trade and Investment Task Force President Marcegaglia is specially committed to ensure that trade remains a tool to promote prosperity and better leaving conditions for citizens around the world.
