Event Summary
On September 18, Brookings—jointly with the Asian Development Bank Institute and the Inter-American Development Bank—co-hosted a roundtable focusing on the global economic agenda for the fall of 2009. Strategically scheduled just prior to the United Nation's General Assembly, the G-20 Leader's Summit in Pittsburgh and the Annual Meetings of the World Bank and the International Monetary Fund (IMF); the roundtable served as a forum to enhance engagement and exchanges between experts from the United States and other G-20 countries on the critical issues to be addressed at these highlevel international gatherings.
