G20 Leaders’ declaration: Building consensus for fair and sustainable development

The GI Hub welcomes the commitment from the G20 Leaders in addressing the infrastructure financing gap and encouraging more private sector investment.

As outlined in the G20 Leaders’ declaration released on 2 December 2018, the group endorsed the Roadmap to Infrastructure as an Asset Class and the G20 Principles for the Infrastructure Project Preparation Phase.

Further, the G20 Leaders will take action to achieve greater contractual standardisation, address data gaps and improve risk mitigation instruments. In line with the Roadmap, the group will look forward to progress on quality infrastructure in 2019.
