 WERDER-HAVEL, Germany (AP) - Top finance officials from the world's eight wealthiest countries said Saturday the global economy is on track, but warned that volatile energy prices could disrupt growth.
The officials from Germany, Italy, Britain, Japan, Canada, Russia, the United States and France also renewed their calls for better financial governance in Africa and reaffirmed "our commitment to meeting our responsibilities as donors" to the region in the ongoing fight to tackle poverty there.
"Global growth remains robust and it is more balanced across regions and within our countries," they said in a communique released after two days of meetings at a resort on the shore of Lake Schwielowsee, with a heavy police presence and new fencing surrounding them.
