  The G20 operates without a permanent secretariat or staff. The group's chair (the presidency) rotates annually among the members and is selected from a different regional grouping of countries. The incumbent chair establishes a temporary secretariat for the duration of its term, which coordinates the group's work and organizes its meetings. Together with the previous and following presidency a so-called troika is formed, to provide a smooth transition of secretariat functions.
  
  The 2022 summit was held in Bali, Indonesia. India was the chair in 2023 and hosted the 2023 summit. South Africa is the current chair and will host the 2025 Johannesburg Summit.
  
  Additionally because of the lacking of a permanent secretariat the G20 has been relying on the OECD for more institutional competences substituting permanent secretariat functions.
