"Can I welcome you to this conference following this G20 summit. This is the day that the world came together to fight back against the global recession, not with words but with a plan for global recovery and for reform and with a clear timetable for its delivery. And our message today is clear and certain. We believe that in this new global age, our prosperity is indivisible. We believe that global problems require global solutions. We believe that growth to be sustained must be shared and that trade must once again become an engine of growth. The old Washington consensus is over. Today we have reached a new consensus that we take global action together to deal with the problems we face, that we will do what is necessary to restore growth and jobs, that we will take essential action to rebuild confidence and trust in our financial system and to prevent a crisis such as this ever happening again. There are no quick fixes but with the six pledges that we make today we can shorten the recession and we can save jobs."

"We will complete the implementation of international colleges of supervisors of financial institutions and we will implement new rules on pay and bonuses at a global level that reflect actual performance with no more rewards for failure. We want to encourage corporate responsibility in every part of the world. Secondly, we will clean up the banks so that they increase lending to families and businesses and to enable this we've agreed for the first time a common, global approach to how we deal with impaired or toxic assets."

"Since our last meeting in Washington and as part of this process from Washington, G20 countries have announced and are now implementing the largest macro-economic stimulus the world has ever seen. We are in the middle of an unprecedented fiscal expansion which will by the end of next year amount to an injection of five (tr) trillion dollars into our economies and it will save or create (m) millions of jobs in a period where we must combat unemployment."

"We will act also to make our global recovery fair and more sustainable. This time of financial crisis is no time to walk away from our commitment to the world's poorest. So when people are suffering and yet it is within our capacity to help we will not pass by on the other side."

"I think a new world order is emerging and with it the foundations of a new and progressive era of international cooperation. We have resolved that from today we will together manage the process of globalisation to secure responsibility from all and fairness to all. And we've agreed that in doing so we will build a more sustainable and more open and a fairer global society."

G20 leaders on Thursday pledged an additional one (tr) trillion US dollars to restore credit, growth and jobs in the world economy, announcing a broad raft of measures designed to hasten the end of the global financial crisis.
The leaders also declared a crackdown on tax havens, regulation of hedge funds and a new supervisory body to flag problems in the world financial system.
"This is the day that the world came together to fight back against the global recession, not with words but with a plan for global recovery and for reform and with a clear timetable for its delivery," said the summit's host, British Prime Minister Gordon Brown.
While they did not announce any new stimulus measures - as some in the United States had hoped - Brown said the one (tr) trillion US dollar deal to boost funds for the International Monetary Fund, World Bank and other global institutions was unprecedented.
"This time of financial crisis is no time to walk away from our commitment to the world's poorest. So when people are suffering and yet it is within our capacity to help we will not pass by on the other side," Brown said.
The G20 leaders also said that developing nations - hard-hit and long complaining of marginalisation - would have a greater say in world economic affairs.
They said they would renounce protectionism and pledged 250 (b) billion US dollars in trade finance over the next two years - a key measure to help struggling developing countries.
The leaders also agreed to new rules on linking executive pay to performance, Brown said.
The sweeping G20 communique appeared to bridge the gap between the United States and major European countries over how far to push changes on regulation to curb the market excesses that led to the current crisis.
The result of the dramatic one-day gathering was swiftly praised by German Chancellor Angela Merkel and French President Nicolas Sarkozy.
Sarkozy praised President Barack Obama and Brown at the end of the meeting, despite having threatened earlier to walk out if unsatisfied with the outcome.
The French leader said Obama helped in creating consensus and in persuading China to agree to publish lists of tax havens.
European and US markets surged ahead on Thursday as the outcome of the summit came into view.
