President Obama's focus on revitalising the American economy and reforming the banks, as set out in his State of the Union speech, will be digested by the thousands of politicians and business executives at the World Economic Forum in Davos.

They will also hear from the UN's special envoy to Haiti, Bill Clinton, who will appeal to private investors to provide funding to help rebuild the earthquake-shattered country.
