Of course it helps that the Macri and Zorreguieta families are part of the "us knows us" incrowd in Argentina... The Prime Minister is also there, so Queen Máxima is completely covered by the ministerial responsibility. ("The King Can Do No Wrong").
The G20 being hosted in Argenrina probably scored her the invite. It was probably even (partly) because of her that the Netherlands got an invite at all as the host is allowed to invite 1 or 2 adfitional countries and while the Netherlands is the world's 17th economy, it is not one of the members (nor is it a permanent invitee like Spain as the world's 14th economy and non-member) but relations with Argentina are good thanks to our queen.
Both the prime minister and the minister of finance are attending the G20 gatherings (and/or side meetings).
