Thanks to the success of government stimulus packages, the global financial crisis that erupted in September 2008 has calmed down and the world economy continues to show signs of recovery.
However, rising government and household debt still threatens to stir up another crisis and is serving as a drag on recovery.
Further, a surge in liquidity is escalating concerns over inflation, giving greater credence to arguments for pushing ahead with an exit strategy.
What is the proper course for responding to the biggest crisis since the Great Depression and reviving the global economy? And what should the new global economic architecture look like?

- How well has the global economy navigated through the storm of the past two years and what economic policies should be taken on at this point?
- What is the 'new normal' that will govern subsequent financial market initiatives and innovations?
- What now for Korea in a post-crisis world? What visions must Korea formulate for its future and how can Korea make full use of its opportunities as host of the G-20 Summit?
