The G20 has kept the ball in play, taking some limited steps towards the rules needed to allow people the world over to follow the money and hold governments and companies to account. On tax transparency some good progress was made \u2013 with clear recognition that reforms must benefit developing countries. However, we are disappointed that leaders did not make any progress on requiring oil, gas and mining companies to disclose the payments they make to governments, nor did they do much to crack down on the phantom firms that enable corrupt leaders and irresponsible companies to rob Africa of much-needed resources.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s critical that developing countries are involved, included and benefit from progress on transparency; we will be watching closely to see that the G20\u2019s commitments to ensure that developing countries reap the benefits of the transparency agenda are matched by appropriate actions. By the time of next year\u2019s G20, in Australia, we expect to see accelerated progress, with public registries of companies and trusts on the way to being established as a global norm for beneficial ownership. On this, Europe can and should lead the way. Warm words uttered at G8 and G20 Summits must translate into action in Brussels.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<div class=\"buffer\"><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>ONE reacts to the conclusion of the 2013 G20 Summit in St. Petersburg, Russia.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":0,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_relevanssi_hide_post":"","_relevanssi_hide_content":"","_relevanssi_pin_for_all":"","_relevanssi_pin_keywords":"","_relevanssi_unpin_keywords":"","_relevanssi_related_keywords":"","_relevanssi_related_include_ids":"","_relevanssi_related_exclude_ids":"","_relevanssi_related_no_append":"","_relevanssi_related_not_related":"","_relevanssi_related_posts":"","_relevanssi_noindex_reason":"","footnotes":""},"contributor":[],"class_list":["post-74194","one_press","type-one_press","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v27.1 (Yoast SEO v27.1.1) -
