Yellen met with several counterparts on the sidelines of the G20 Finance Ministers and Central Bank Governors Meeting; including Australia’s Treasurer Jim Chalmers, Saudi Arabia’s Minister of Finance Mohammed Al-Jadaan, Singapore’s Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Finance Lawrence Wong, South Africa’s Minister of Finance Enoch Godongwana, and Turkey’s Minister of Treasury and Finance Nureddin Nebati.
