The G7
We have published for the G7 since the Denver Summit of the Eight in June 1997 — the first summit publication of its kind. Every edition since has followed the same discipline: return after the leaders leave and set out, accurately, what was actually agreed.
- Since
- 1997 · Denver Summit of the Eight
- Editions
- More than a dozen official G7 and G8 titles
- Readership
- Heads of delegation, sherpas, ministries, embassies
- Next
- G7 2026 · host presidency edition
Eighty-five percent of world GDP, in one room, once a year.
The G20
The G20 is where the global economic agenda is actually set. We have reviewed every presidency for more than two decades — from Cannes to Bali, Riyadh to Rio — and the United States presidency is next.
- Since
- The G20 leaders’ process began in 2008
- Editions
- Official reviews of every presidency
- Companion tracks
- B20, W20, G20 YEA and the sherpa process
- Next
- G20 United States · Miami, December 2026
The business voice of the G20, on the record.
The B20
The B20 is the official dialogue between the G20 and the global business community. We publish the review that tracks which recommendations survive the sherpa process — and which do not travel.
- Editions
- Official B20 reviews for Germany, Argentina and Japan
- Partners
- Produced with the London School of Economics
- Readership
- B20 membership, industry federations, banks, multilaterals
- Next
- B20 USA · Washington, D.C., November 2026
The Women 20 agenda, carried into the leaders’ declaration.
The W20
W20 is the G20 engagement group for women’s economic empowerment. We publish its agenda inside The Global Briefing and as standalone features, so the recommendations reach the same desks as the communiqué.
- Format
- Published within The Global Briefing and as standalone features
- Recent
- Bali 2022, Riyadh 2020, Rio 2025 editions
- Readership
- G20 delegations, engagement groups, corporate diversity leadership
- Next
- W20 United States · 2026 cycle
Twenty-one economies. Sixty percent of world GDP. One ocean.
APEC
APEC is where regional economic integration is negotiated in practice — tariffs, supply chains, digital trade and the blue economy. We have published the APEC Review and the ABAC report since 2011.
- Since
- The Official APEC Review, United States, 2011
- Titles
- Leaders & CEO Summit, ABAC Report, From Green to Blue Finance
- Readership
- ABAC members, trade ministries, regional business councils
- Next
- APEC 2026 · Shenzhen, China, November 18–19
Where pledges become obligations — or quietly do not.
COP
Our COP Review measures climate commitments against what was actually delivered since the last conference. It is the accounting that almost nobody else keeps, and it is why the edition is still cited years later.
- Editions
- COP26 (within G20 and APEC titles), COP27 Egypt, COP28 UAE
- Focus
- Pledged against delivered climate finance
- Readership
- Environment ministries, negotiators, climate finance institutions
- Next
- COP31 · Antalya, Türkiye, November 2026
