Leaders will arrive at the ExCel Centre from 0730 on 2 April.  There will be a working breakfast, a series of plenary sessions and a working lunch.  A press conference is planned for 1530, and leaders will begin to depart after that.

The topics for discussion will be around agreeing:

• action to stimulate the world economy;
• additional resources for the IMF, support for trade finance, and action to protect the poorest;
• measures to stabilise the financial sector and encourage credit to flow to people and businesses, alongside tougher regulation of the financial sector to prevent crises in the future;
• strengthened commitments to maintain open markets and refrain from protectionism;
• reforms to the international financial institutions to ensure they have the tools and governance structures to meet the needs of the modern global economy.

The Media Centre will contain the latest news and transcripts.
