Significance
The summit, which marked the end of Argentina’s year as chair of the G20, passed off more peacefully than the previous meeting in Hamburg and avoided diplomatic incidents. However, it is unlikely to produce the boost to President Mauricio Macri’s re-election aspirations that he hoped.
Impacts
Electoral uncertainties will delay foreign investment commitments, except for China.
The avoidance of violent incidents will mute criticism of the summit domestically.
Presidential handovers in Mexico and Brazil will limit hopes for a significant regional impact.
