Growth
Global growth in 2021 is slated to be the highest in over five decades, yet the pandemic is expected to cause a hit of as much as $12 trillion for developing countries in the period up to 2025. Growth is no longer in the realm of any particular country but requires convergence of economic policies at a global level. The tools available to the world to keep up the momentum in the post-pandemic era would be discussed across sessions. The massive stimulus programs of different countries have helped shore up the recovery process. Much more would need to be done to ensure an enduring recovery process, after the base effect of an unprecedented year wanes. Consumption and investment both require funds to reach spending sections of society and the modalities for providing accessible and affordable funding for medium- and long-term requirements will be taken up at the Summit.
