Davos 2010: Reshaping the world's financial systems

Dozens of government leaders are spending the next few days mixing with hundreds of top executives from global corporations at the World Economic Forum 2010, in Davos.

The official theme of this year's meeting is - Improve the State of the World: Rethink, Redesign, Rebuild - and the world's decision makers are considering ways of ensuring the recovery of the global economy continues, as Tanya Beckett explains.

While the economic forecast is uncertain - things are certainly looking better than they were this time last year. However, while the mood is more upbeat, questions still remain about international financial regulations.

One of those attending the meeting is former US assistant international treasury secretary, Charles Dallara.
