The couple had accompanied Trump on
his second major international trip as president, the centerpiece of which was a meeting of the G-20, hosted by German chancellor Angela Merkel. Jared Kushner and Ivanka Trump are senior advisers to the president and were part of the delegation accompanying him, which included chief economic adviser
Gary Cohn, National Security Adviser H. R. McMaster, Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin, Secretary of State Rex Tillerson, and a smattering of West Wing aides. But the 35-year-old Ivanka had a special purpose that day. She was unveiling a $325 million effort she had worked on for months: a World Bank fund, promised to reach $1 billion, to help finance women entrepreneurs in developing countries.
