London, Nov 5 (AFP) Bolstering the world economic recovery and crafting a deal to fight climate change will be top of the agenda for G20 finance ministers meeting tomorrow in Scotland.

Ministers plus central bankers from the 20 richest and fastest-emerging economies will hold their third get-together this year over two days in St Andrews, a seaside town known as the home of golf.

Now that countries like the US, Japan, Germany and France have emerged from recession after last year's global financial crisis, the G20's focus has switched from disaster management to building a secure economic future.

World leaders at September's Pittsburgh G20 summit had agreed a new system to coordinate economic decision-making and encourage stable, long-term growth.

A key priority this weekend will be working out details of how this mutual assessment system will work, G20 officials said, speaking on condition of anonymity.
