United States Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner is to attend part of an informal meeting of euro zone finance ministers on Friday in Poland, euro zone officials said on Monday.

He should be attending part of the Eurogroup, said one euro zone official, who asked not to be named. Two other officials involved in the preparation of the meeting in the south-western city of Wroclaw confirmed Geithner was to attend.
