Why it matters

Budgets change taxes, spending and government borrowing; summits can change trade, sanctions and energy supply. Markets react to announcements that were not expected.

How it is calculated

There is no figure to calculate; the outcome is a decision or a communiqué.

What changes mean

  • Watch for measures that change borrowing plans or trade rules.

A short history

International summits such as the G7 (from 1975) and G20 (leaders since 2008) became regular venues for coordinating policy in crises.
