Crypto regulation is an important topic of discussion at the G20 meetings in Washington, DC, under India's presidency, according to Indian Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman. India aims to develop a common regulatory framework for cryptocurrencies and deal with associated risks. Sitharaman will hold a high-level meeting with US Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen to discuss mutual interests. India will also co-chair the Global Sovereign Debt Roundtable with the IMF and the World Bank on April 12, focusing on the global debt landscape and debt restructuring challenges. On April 14, a high-level seminar on the macro-financial implications of crypto assets will be held.
