Merkel urges more financial market reforms

German Chancellor Angela Merkel urged on the eve of the summit of the Group of 20 to continue reforming financial markets. Merkel said that there is still progress in the field shadow banking sector and hedge funds (hedge funds). "I want to agree on a binding timetable to make it clear when to take what steps," he said in his weekly Internet video.



The Group of Twenty agreed that each financial actor, every financial product and every financial market should be regulated, Merkel reminded, for whom the balance so far is "light and shadow". The heads of state and government of the G20 industrialized countries and emerging powers-will meets on Thursday and Friday next week in St. Petersburg to celebrate its eighth summit.


One of the issues that will dominate the meetings on the sidelines of the meeting is the possibility of military action against the regime of Bashar al Assad in Syria. Merkel also expected advances in the field of tax evasion. "The greatest economic power nations agree to an automatic exchange of information", she said. He said the G20 would probably adopt the recommendations of the Organization of Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) to prevent multinationals to evade taxes.
