U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent is in Banff, Canada, for the G7 Finance Leaders Meeting.

The Treasury Department stated, “During his time in Banff, Secretary Bessent will focus on the need to address global economic imbalances and non-market practices in both G7 and non-G7 countries, and the need to generate private sector-led growth.”

Other topics of discussion at the meeting will include artificial intelligence, cybersecurity, and the global economy as well as the ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine.

Secretary Bessent will also hold a bilateral meeting with Japanese Finance Minister Katsunobu Kato to discuss currency policy and exchange rates.

As the Lord Leads, Pray with Us…

  • For discernment for Secretary Bessent as he engages other finance ministers at the G7 meeting.
  • For President Trump and Secretary Rubio as they seek diplomatic solutions to international conflicts.
  • For members of the House and Senate to be prudent as they hold hearings and investigations today.
