G20 officials to talk recovery, reserves

Top finance officials at a Group of 20 meeting in London are expected to stress their commitment to boosting the global economy for now. The push comes despite friction over when exactly to scale back stimulus efforts amid growing signs of recovery.

Finance ministers and central bankers will try to coordinate plans for an eventual winding down of the trillions of dollars of support as well as discussing further financial reforms such as a US proposal for an international accord on increasing banks' capital reserves.

Agreement is less likely on a European proposal to curb bankers' bonuses, which may run into a US stumbling block.
