One of the crucial issues discussed during the First Finance and Central Bank Deputies Meeting under India's G20 Presidency which started on Tuesday was about taking a globally-coordinated approach to unbacked crypto assets.

The Ministry of Finance and the Reserve Bank of India jointly hosted the three-day gathering, with discussions on the "Finance Track" agenda under India's G20 Presidency.

Day 1 saw different sessions on global economy, international financial architecture, infrastructure and sustainable finance.
