"China and the United States agree that to strengthen the effectiveness and legitimacy of the IFIs both countries must enhance their governance and ensure it fully reflects change in the world economy," Zhou said during the two-day China-US Strategic and Economic Dialogue which kicked off on Monday.

"In this regard, emerging and developing economies, including China, should have greater voices and representation," he said, adding that the United States also supports qualified candidates from China being given full consideration to assume high-level positions in IFIs.

"China and the US pledge to work together to reform IFIs in order to ensure they are responsive to the needs of developing countries, and strengthen their capacity to prevent and respond to future crisis," said Zhou.

He said China and the United States also agreed in the discussions to expedite financial sector reform and improve financial regulation and supervision to make their financial sectors more robust, and promote greater financial market transparency.
