G90

International Monetary and Trade Organizations

The G90, also known as the Group of 90, is an alliance of the world's poorest and smallest developing countries, many of which belong to the World Trade Organization. It emerged as a unified negotiating bloc at the WTO's 2003 Ministerial Conference in Cancun, where it took common positions representing the largest number of countries at the talks, with 64 of its 90 members holding WTO membership. The G90 functions as an umbrella grouping bringing together the African, Caribbean and Pacific Group of States, the African Union, and the group of Least Developed Countries, making it the largest trading bloc within the WTO.
