BACKGROUND
Background

The world is undergoing unprecedented transition. Understanding what is 'changed' and 'unchanged' in the global economic situation is crucial to forecast the development of global economy and finance. Especially with the challenges from the development of science and technology innovation and other interference factors, financial stability consisting of stable international relations, cohesive society, and regular trade system become an imperative request. In-depth and comprehensive discussion will be conducted to convey the breadth of the theme of "Global Stability – New Transition, New Development" at this year's meeting. The IFF will continue demonstrating its deep commitment to the establishment of Finance 20 (F20) that serves as a platform for the international community to explore the future path to new globalization, examine the challenges and opportunities the world faces, and present solutions for crisis management and cooperation.
