Washington is set to reduce the number of finance minister and central bank governor meetings under its upcoming G-20 chairmanship, according to people familiar with the matter, in a move aimed at simplifying the multilateral schedule, Bloomberg reported.

Typically, G-20 host nations convene finance chiefs twice domestically and twice on the sidelines of International Monetary Fund and World Bank gatherings, alongside separate sessions for trade and foreign ministers. Under the US plan, the usual February meeting of finance ministers and central bank governors will not be held, though a session with deputy finance ministers is expected to proceed.

For 2026, the United States intends to hold just one domestic meeting for finance ministers and central bankers in August, the sources said, significantly trimming the usual host-nation calendar. The broader G-20 framework remains extensive, encompassing numerous working-level and ministerial discussions that culminate in the leaders’ summit.

The leaders’ summit is set for December 2026 in Miami, where finance ministers and central bankers will reconvene after the year of streamlined sessions, setting the tone for Washington’s priorities in the multilateral economic forum.
