Geithner Sees G-20 Consensus, Supports Dollar’s Reserve Role
By Rebecca Christie
September 25 (Bloomberg) – Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner said he sees a “strong consensus†among Group of 20 nations to reduce reliance on exports for growth and defended the dollar’s role as the world’s reserve currency.
“A strong dollar is very important in the United States,†Geithner said in response to a question at a press conference yesterday in Pittsburgh, where G-20 leaders began two days of talks.
Geithner predicted agreement on an Obama administration proposal to foster a global recovery that avoids lopsided flows of trade and investment. He said a higher U.S. savings rate this year is an “encouraging sign,†and he indicated that government support for markets will be withdrawn gradually.
