Global Economic Crisis

G20 warns recovery too weak, risks slowdown

AFP, Saini Petersburg
G20 leaders yesterday warned that global the economic recovery was too weak, with the risk of a further slowdown, and that some emerging markets showed particular fragility.
They backed a "Saint Petersburg action plan" to boost growth and employment as host Russian President Vladimir Putin cautioned that the "risks are still very, very large" for the fragile recovery.
Directly addressing concerns by emerging markets about the tapering of stimulus programmes by central banks, the leaders vowed that future changes to monetary policy will be "carefully calibrated and clearly com-
municated".
"Despite our actions, the recovery is too weak, and risks remain tilted to the downside," the leaders said in their final communique after their two-day meeting in Saint Petersburg, which was overshadowed by the Syria crisis.
"Global growth prospects for 2013 have been marked down repeatedly over the last year, global rebalancing is incomplete, regional growth disparities remain wide, and unemployment, particularly among youth, remains unacceptably high," the statement said.
While there are signs of recovery in the eurozone and growth has continued in emerging market economies,
it has slowed down in developingcountries, it added.
The statement appeared to recognise the need for central banks such as the US Federal Reserve to eventually end their monetary easing policies.
"We remain mindful of the risks and unintended negative side effects of extended periods of monetary easing," it said.
But it also added: "Our central banks have committed that future changes to monetary policy settings will continue to be carefully calibrated and clearly communicated."
The "Saint Petersburg action plan" was aimed at stimulating growth and creating jobs, the statement said.
"There was a goal to create new quality jobs, with a special emphasis on stimulating employment of vulnerable groups, most of all youth, women, people with disabilities, and others," Putin said at his final news conference.
The countries agreed that they should also avoid "policies that could cause the recovery to falter or promote growth at other countries' expense."
In their final communique, the G20 leaders also endorsed a drive drawn up by the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development to impose uniform rules to crack down on tax avoidance by big multinationals and help fill repleted coffers.
