On behalf of City of London,Z/Yen Group works on the Global Financial Centers Index(GFCI) for 3 years.The index publishes every six months,is dynamic, tracking the changing perceptions of cities as financial centres on an ongoing basis.Meanwhile,if refers to a lot of existing rankings and does some surveys on senior industry figures.Thus,the index is quite objective and complete.Here’s the report for March 2009.
In the rankings,you can see that only two Asian cities-Hong Kong and Singapore are there and the developed countries are still controlling the world’s economy.However,I know that in September’s report,the rankings have been changed a lot.I believe that indicates the trend of developments in the world.Let’s check it out later.
