Abstract
At its next meeting in Hangzhou the G20 needs to revitalise the WTO so that it can play a central role in an open trading system that accommodates the diverse needs of its membership. In addition, it should ensure that the ultimate impact of the mega-regional agreements is to provide building blocks and create more contestable and open markets rather than present stumbling blocks and establish more exclusionist arrangements.
