Why the G20 Can’t Solve Big Problems

Why the G20 Can’t Solve Big Problems

World leaders have gathered in Osaka, Japan for the latest G20 summit meeting. What is the G20, where did it come from, and why is it unable to meet the world's biggest challenges?

  

But since the financial crisis, the G20 hasn't accomplished much. There are two main reasons why:

  1. It's hard to get 20 countries to agree on anything that demands shared sacrifice.
  2. The G20 countries don't share basic political and economic values.

The result: There are big challenges the G20 can't really address.
