G20 <\/strong>– The world\u2019s biggest economies will use all available measures to support global growth and better share the benefits of trade, policymakers said on Sunday, at the end of a two-day G20 meeting in China. The meeting has been dominated by the impact of Britain\u2019s exit from Europe. Britain\u2019s new chancellor, Philip Hammond, said the uncertainty about Brexit would begin to abate once Britain laid out a vision for a future relationship with Europe, which could become clearer later this year. Hammond also said there could be volatility in financial markets throughout the negotiations in the years ahead.<\/p>\n
