Efforts should also be made as soon as possible to stabilize the global financial market and earnestly give play to the role of finance in spurring the real economy to restore confidence of the people and businesses, Hu said.

He called for strengthening coordination among different nations on economic polices and joint efforts against trade and investment protectionism to help the world economy recover.

"The international financial system should undergo necessary reforms in an all-round, balanced, gradual and effective manner to prevent a similar crisis in the future," the president said.

China, as a responsible country, would work with all other parties attending the summit to help it yield "positive" and "practical" results, Hu said.

The Summit, which was held at the ExCel center in east London, brought together leaders of the G20, and representatives of international and regional groups, and financial institutions to work cooperatively to restore stability and stimulate global economic growth.

The London summit is a follow-up to a meeting of last November in Washington. At the Washington summit, leaders of G20 members agreed to enhance their cooperation and work together to restore global growth and achieve needed reforms in the world's financial system in face of the financial crisis.

According to the British government, the host of the meeting, the goals of the summit are to secure global economic recovery, agree on the contours of a strengthened financial system, and principles, priorities and process for reform of the international financial institutions.

At present, the financial crisis, which was triggered by the subprime mortgage crisis, has grown into a severe and widespread international financial crisis rarely seen in history.

The impact of the crisis on economies around the world is still deepening and its grave consequences will be felt more acutely in the days to come.
