Implementing Funding Platforms: A Solution to Fragmentation

The global economy is at a crossroads. Fragmented and volatile, it urgently needs a new engine for growth. The G20’s recommendations emphasise collaboration, standardisation, and alignment across different areas to achieve sustainable development goals. In this context, this paper recommends to G20 Leaders to seek synergies across different domains to support financing for investments in Africa in order to generate enduring and resilient growth, with particular attention to local communities and Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs). The 2024 G20 Leaders’ Communiqué laid the foundation for this shift, endorsing flexible, country led platforms to drive enduring economic progress.
