A White House official tells CBS News that President Obama will meet with "several" bank CEOs on Friday in an effort to convince the executives to consider a "wider set of obligations."

"President Obama will meet with the CEOs of several of the largest banks in the country to reiterate his belief that getting the economy back on track will require an understanding that each of us must look beyond our own short-term interests to the wider set of obligations we have to each other in order for America to succeed," according to the official.
