History
The Group of Thirty was founded in 1978 by Geoffrey Bell at the initiative of the Rockefeller Foundation,[2] which also provided initial funding for the body. Its first chairman was Johannes Witteveen, the former managing director of the International Monetary Fund. The G30's current chairman is Mark Carney.[3] Its current chairman of the board of trustees is Tharman Shanmugaratnam , and Jacob Frenkel is chairman emeritus.
The Bellagio Group,[4] formed by Austrian economist Fritz Machlup, was the immediate predecessor to the Group of Thirty.[5] It first met in 1963, at the Rockefeller Foundation Center (Villa Serbelloni) in Bellagio,[6] to investigate international currency problems, particularly the balance of payments crisis which America faced throughout the early 1960s.
In June 2011, the group released a report that examines the 2008 financial crisis, including the causes, the responses and the future outlook for the United States and other markets.[7]
In January 2018, the European Ombudsman Emily O'Reilly requested that ECB President Mario Draghi resign from the group because his membership in the organization could be interpreted as undue influence.[8]
