  • Global Financial Centres Index 11 Published Today - Chinese And Eurozone Centres Languish Whilst Offshore Centres Regain

    Date 20/03/2012

    Today the Z/Yen Group publishes the eleventh Global Financial Centres Index (GFCI 11) covering 77 financial centres. The big changes from GFCI 10 in September 2011 are:

    • The past trend of large rises in the ratings of Asia/Pacific centres has paused. Hong Kong, Singapore, Tokyo, Shanghai, Beijing, Taipei and Shenzhen all decline in GFCI 11. Centres on the mainland of China have seen significant declines with Shanghai down 37 points and Beijing down 11.
    • The capital cities of the weaker Euro economies continue to suffer. Dublin, Milan, Madrid, Lisbon and Athens were all down in GFCI 10 and this decline has continued in GFCI 11with these five centres all down in the rankings again.
    • In contrast to the centres in the weaker Eurozone economies, Frankfurt and Paris have both risen in the ranks. This may be as a result of the political lead that Germany and France have been showing in attempting to come to terms with the Eurozone crisis.
    • Offshore centres have suffered significant reputational damage recently. The man offshore centres are recovering lost ground. Jersey, Guernsey, the Cayman Islands, the British Virgin Islands, the Isle of Man, Gibraltar and Mauritius have all made modest gains in the ratings.

    Date 20/03/2012

    Chairman Bachus, Ranking Member Frank, and members of the Committee, thank you for the opportunity to testify today on developments in Europe. Europe is a key strategic and economic partner of the United States, and we have an enormous stake in the success of European efforts to restore financial stability and secure growth. The U.S. recovery is getting stronger, but the strength of our recovery will depend in part on events beyond our shores, as we saw last year when U.S. growth was buffeted by headwinds from Europe.
