  • Redefining Global Cities the Seven Types of Global Metro Economies
    REDEFINING GLOBAL CITIES THE SEVEN TYPES OF GLOBAL METRO ECONOMIES REDEFINING GLOBAL CITIES THE SEVEN TYPES OF GLOBAL METRO ECONOMIES GLOBAL CITIES INITIATIVE A JOINT PROJECT OF BROOKINGS AND JPMORGAN CHASE JESUS LEAL TRUJILLO AND JOSEPH PARILLA THE BROOKINGS INSTITUTION | METROPOLITAN POLICY PROGRAM | 2016 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY ith more than half the world’s population now living in urban areas, cities are the critical drivers of global economic growth and prosperity. The world’s 123 largest metro areas contain a little Wmore than one-eighth of global population, but generate nearly one-third of global economic output. As societies and economies around the world have urbanized, they have upended the classic notion of a global city. No longer is the global economy driven by a select few major financial centers like New York, London, and Tokyo. Today, members of a vast and complex network of cities participate in international flows of goods, services, people, capital, and ideas, and thus make distinctive contributions to global growth and opportunity. And as the global economy continues to suffer from what the IMF terms “too slow growth for too long,” efforts to understand and enhance cities’ contributions to growth and prosperity become even more important. In view of these trends and challenges, this report redefines global cities. It introduces a new typology that builds from a first-of-its-kind database of dozens of indicators, standardized across the world’s 123 largest metro economies, to examine global city economic characteristics, industrial structure, and key competitive- ness factors: tradable clusters, innovation, talent, and infrastructure connectivity. The typology reveals that, indeed, there is no one way to be a global city.

One difficulty is whether to label this a developing country (like its neighbouring countries), a former colony (like the United States and Australia), or an emerging economy (like the BRICS group), because of its highly diverse and unevenly developed character.

    SOUTH AFRICA’S GLOBAL GATEWAY PROFILING THE GAUTENG CITY-REGION’S INTERNATIONAL COMPETITIVENESS AND CONNECTIONS SOUTH AFRICA’S GLOBAL GATEWAY PROFILING THE GAUTENG CITY-REGION’S INTERNATIONAL COMPETITIVENESS AND CONNECTIONS GLOBAL CITIES INITIATIVE A JOINT PROJECT OF BROOKINGS AND JPMORGAN CHASE JOSEPH PARILLA AND JESUS LEAL TRUJILLO THE BROOKINGS INSTITUTION | METROPOLITAN POLICY PROGRAM | 2015 SUMMARY he Gauteng City-Region, centered on Johannesburg, reflects the chal- lenges and opportunities of South Africa’s extraordinary economic, demographic, social, and political transformation. Just 20 years Tremoved from the transition to a multiracial democracy, the city- region’s economic assets rival other major international cities—a stable of global companies, leading universities, a young and increasingly educated workforce, well-connected infrastructure, and democratic governance. Yet as in many other emerging market cities, too many residents still lack the skills, networks, and access to benefit from, and contribute to, the Gauteng City-Region’s economy. Significant levels of unemployment, income inequality, and social exclusion are hindering prog- ress toward full equality of opportunity and the city-region’s long-term economic competitiveness. This report, developed as part of the Global Cities Initiative, a joint project of Brookings and JPMorgan Chase, provides a framework for the Gauteng City-Region to examine its competitive position in the global economy, offering information and insights to inform regional leaders working to sustain the region’s prosperity. Its key findings are: Much economic progress has been made in the this period, slowing productivity growth since 2010, Gauteng City-Region since 2000, but signs of and continued high levels of income inequality.
