Excerpts:

"To ensure that G7 countries operate at the technological frontier in the
years ahead, we will foster growth by promoting education and innovation,
protecting intellectual property rights, supporting private investment with
a business friendly climate especially for small and medium-sized
enterprises, ensuring an appropriate level of public investment, promoting
quality infrastructure investment to address shortfalls through effective
resource mobilization in partnership with the private sector and increasing
productivity by further implementing ambitious structural reforms."


"We also remain committed to strengthening the regulation and oversight of
the shadow banking sector, appropriate to the systemic risk posed. Timely
and comprehensive implementation of the agreed G20 shadow banking roadmap
is essential."

"We therefore reaffirm our commitment to finalize concrete and feasible
recommendations for the G20/OECD Base Erosion and Profit Shifting (BEPS)
Action Plan by the end of this year. "

"Fostering global economic growth by reducing barriers to trade remains
imperative and we reaffirm our commitment to keep markets open and fight
all forms of protectionism, including through standstill and rollback. "


Cheers,

Tim.H.
