There are signs that the Seoul meeting may be successful. The meeting of G-20 finance ministers and central bankers in the South Korean city of Kyeongju on October 22 produced some noteworthy achievements, such as shifting 6% of the IMF’s voting quota from overrepresented Europe to underrepresented emerging countries, doubling members’ quotas, and reducing Europe’s representation on the Fund’s executive board by two seats.
诸多迹象表明，首尔会议有可能会获得成功。10月22日在韩国庆州市举行的G-20财长和央行行长峰会已经达成了部分重要共识，比如把代表名额过多的欧洲的6%投票名额转移给了代表名额不足的新兴国家，从而将后者的名额增加一倍，同时将欧洲在IMF执行委员会里的席位减少两个。
