Both statements are correct. The G20 began in 1999, after the Asian financial crisis, as a forum of Finance Ministers and Central Bank Governors, and India made digital public infrastructure one of the three priority areas of its 2023 G20 Presidency.
- ✓ 1. The G20 was founded in 1999 after the Asian financial crisis as a meeting place for finance ministers and central bank governors. It was later raised to the level of heads of state or government.
- ✓ 2. During India's 2023 Presidency the G20 Digital Economy Working Group named three priority areas: digital public infrastructure, security in the digital economy and digital skilling.
Remember · G20: founded 1999 for finance ministers and central bank governors, upgraded to a leaders' summit later. India's 2023 presidency put digital public infrastructure on its agenda.
