The US is starting to pare back its emergency support for banks and financial markets, Treasury secretary Tim Geithner said on Thursday, announcing that the state guarantee for the $2,500bn money market mutual fund industry will expire on schedule this month. Nearly a year after the collapse of Lehman Brothers helped tip the world into recession, Geithner said it was time to move from crisis response to recovery. He also backed a review by the FDIC bank regulator that is likely to end or restrict funding guarantees for banks.
