Global Urban Competitiveness Factor Environment Indicators synthesis Synthesizing Global Urban Competitiveness Factor Environment Indicato rs at all levels, we used the simple linear and nonlinear weighted average method synthesis. Global Urban Competitiveness Factor industry synthesis Indicators Industry takes nonlinear weighted synthesis and the level of industry and the industrial structure is calculated by nonlinear weighted (or "multiplicati on" synthesis) Part 2 Findings of comparative analysis City, who can overcome the financial tsunami Competitive advantages of “world cities” decease absolut ely and New York's decreasing amplitude is the first, while Asian metropolises continue rising. Internal environment and public institution are the most two important factors in a city’s competitive- ability; high-tech industry, finance, public utilities are the key support of urban competitiveness Ⅰ Analysis on the Most Competitive Cities in the World New York rank No.1 and index decreasing amplitude is the first, while Hong Kong’s index upgrades rapidly Index Movement of the 2007-2012 Top 10 Most Competitive Cities Worldwide Compared with the result in 2009-2010, the absolute competitive index in New York, London, San Francisco, Chicago and Los Angles has decreased in 2010-2012.However, emerging economies show activity in this year and Asian metropolises like Hong Kong , Singapore and Seoul have made themselves into the top 10. The gap of which with the following cities are narrowing, “Four World Cities” will be overtaken by other cities in near future if existing trends continue. Internal environment and public institution : The two important factors in a city’s competitive- ability As the potential competitiveness, competition elements represe nt the city’s development potential. By comparing and analyzing the environmental factors of the most competitive cities, we can find: Environmental Factors of the Most Competitive Cities Internal environment, public institutions, global relations and enterprise quality are very important factors of a city’s competitive ability, among which internal environment and public institution are most prominent Internal Environment includes economic environment, social environment, ecological environment and cultural environment. Public Institutions consist of life convenience, economic freedom and the administration of the government. High-tech industry, finance, public utilities are the key support of urban competitiveness Industrial Environment of the most competitive cities As an important support to a city, industrial environment is the driving force to the u rban economic development. The study found that the most competitive cities also enjoy high industrial competitiveness. the high-tech industries like telecommunication, semicon ductor, software and service, financial industries like insurance agencies, banks, and diver sified financial institutions together with public utilities are the key support of urban com petitiveness. For new “world cities” like Beijing and Shanghai, these industries are the m ost important focus in continuing rising and catching up with the top “world cities”. Ⅱ Overall Comparative Analysis on Global Cities The Global urban competitiveness fell in 2010-2012 as a whole wit h the steepest drop expected for Europe and US and the gap betwe en the cities has been reducing. Average Competitiveness Variation of the Cities in Different Regions Compared with 2009-2010, the overall competitiveness of global cities are decreased in 2011-2012. The average competitive index of 500 cities worldwide decreased from 0.328 in 2009-2010 to 0.323 in 2 011-2012.Competitiveness index average score of developed countries cities have respectively decreased absolutely,while Emerging economies show actively and average score drop Slightly, even some cities ar ise continuously. On the whole, the gap of global urban competitiveness index is assuming narrower and narrower . American and European cities enjoy a high degree of eco nomic freedom while emerging economies present a strong demand. Environmental Factors of Different Regions in 2011-2012 On the whole, the American and European cities still have great advantage, which mainta in superiority on overall element competitiveness, especially in the area of public institutio ns, internal environment and local factors. But the local demand are relative weak that they have to high depend on foreign trade. On the contrary, Asian cities, especially in some emer ging economies like China and India, have such great local demand that establish great dev elopment potential and their GUCI ranking is going straight up. American and European major cities are facing over financialization, while emerging economies have entered the period of the industrial structure transformation American and European cities show strong overall industrial competitiveness with high ind ex scores in both industrial structure and industrial sectors, among which the high-tech industr y is an important support. However, the overexposed proportion of financial centers shows tha t their economy depends too much on finance. The Asian cities get lowest scores in the industr ial sectors and the industrial structure is just on an average level and the industrial developme nt of them is still at the bottom of industrial chain,so that industrial upgrading should be prom oted and the adjusting paces of the industrial structure should be accelerated. At present, since the emerging economies like Beijing and Shanghai have entered the period of the industrial st Cities of emerging economies rise quickly, technol ogy centers perform particularly well. Distribution of the Top 50 Cities with the Fastest Competitiveness Improvement in 2011-2012 (Show in next page) • The cities that improve the fastest are, in order, San Jose, Hong Kong, Suzhou, C hangsha, Lagos, Georgetown, Kingston, Xi’an and Mannheim. • According to the analysis of these 50 cities we can see that half of them come fro m China and India, among which 23 Chinese cities are ranking in the list. • Technology centers perform particularly well, 11 technology centers are include d in the f top 50 despite the relatively small economic aggregate. San Jose, centra l city of American Silicon Valley enjoys a fastest rising speed in its competitiven ess. In 2009, its per capita GDP reached $ 77401.91, occupying the first place in the world and leading the development of global cities. Distribution of the Top 50 Cities with the Fastest Competitiveness Improvement in 2011-2 012 competitiveness indexes and economic aggregate of deve loped cities dropped together, but mainstream of BRICS co untries cities are ascension The Changes of Overall Competitiveness in the Five Developed Cities and the Five BRICS Cities In 2007-2009, the overall competitiveness indexes and economic aggregate of develop ed cities are dropped obviously, but economic aggregate of BRICS countries cities arise a bsolutely and competitiveness indexes arise relatively. In the near future, it is probably ver y difficult for developed cities to maintain their dominations in competitiveness. Ⅲ American and European cities decline obviously, while Asian cities increase Average Competitiveness Variation of the Cities in Different Regions North American cities continue leading the Global Urban Competitiveness Ranking thou gh the composite index decrease. The European competitive index ranking changed little; th e dark clouds of European debt crisis remain. The competitiveness of core Asian cities incre ases with the slight shakes of overall index. In other regions, the cities at the bottom of the c ompetitive ranking reduced, and the ranking of middle cities differentiated Ⅵ Financial centers decease while Technology centers rise The Drop of Competitiveness in Major Functional Centers. (%) Ⅴ High Income Cities Drop & Middle Incomes Rise Comprehensive competitiveness index average score and change of different income level The income level of Global Urban overall Showed a narrowing of trend.. All sorts of comprehensive competitiveness index average score declined widespread. Compared wit h 2009-2010, Figure 2-4 shows, the city of the low-and middle-income levels in emergin g economies enhanced faster, especially Chinese cities kept a rapid momentum. Europea n and North American cities with a relatively high GDP per capita demonstrated an absol ute amount of decline. European cities mean index decreased from 0.32 in 2009-2010 to 0.31 in 2011-2012 Ⅵ Competitiveness input factors: high output efficiency in No rth America and Asia to enhance the potential of large, Euro pean investment needs to be strengthened Regional Distribution of rank Comprehensive Competitive-ness Index and Factors input annual Region 10 1-100 101-200 201-300 301-400 401-500 average inde x score 0.38 Competiveness North Amer ican Factors input North Amer ican 5 56 12 9 6 24 Competiveness Europe 2 35 33 16 13 39 Factors input Europe 2 27 31 19 19 40 Competiveness Asian 4 20 26 52 52 37 Factors input Asian 3 21 52 54 46 14 Competiveness Other 0 3 5 12 29 21 4 42 36 20 6 3 0.305 0.331 0.262 0.303 0.258 0.275 Part 3 Global Urban Competitiveness Research Topics Introduction of team writing research Topics report This year, a long-lasting wish has been fulfilled by inviting the research tea m from International Organization and City and other world renowned expert te ams, together with experts from GUCP to co-compose this report. Research team, led by Banji oyelaran Oyeyinka, director of Global Urban Evalu ation and Research Department of UN Human Settlement Programme Research team, The Doing Business Project of the World Bank Group; Research team, led by Lamia Kamal-Chaoui, director of OECD Secretary-Gene ral Office Saskia Sassen, World well-known sociologist & economist, professor of Colum bia University the GAWC team led by Peter Taylor, world renowned urban researcher and a ac ademician of UK Royal Academy of Social Science GUCP team, led by Peter Karl Kresl and Pengfei Ni Pattern of the global city: Current and Future What is current pattern of global city? What are opportunities an d challenges of the global city? etc. Since early 2012, Global Urban Competitiveness Project group sent e-mail to experts and researcher s nearly 100 colleges and universities in the world, as well as some city government officials and to conducted a survey study. On the b asis of Collecting their answers to these questions and feedback, the team members list systematically some profound and important insi ghts points on the pattern of the global city: New phenomenon, challenges and hot topics of global cities mainly includ e global financial crisis, natural resources, city development and people’s li velihood etc. The important or key questions of cities in the worldinclude natural resour ces, racial problems, and population movement There are many aspects that are worthy of researching. For example, im proving city’s sustaining development, city comprehensive management, preserving local culture and upgrading environment. Economic growth and population movements are the key elements. Globa lization are creating more chances for global city development and exerting different influence on it. Today, some cities in developing countries have the tendency of dropping, while cities in developing countries are rising. These cities development are getting closer. The economic change on pattern will lead to the change in th e world city pattern, in which case, the world is shifting to emerging econo mies cities. A country should empower more authority on managing local affai rs. The cities should strengthen their governance accordingly. Technological change and green economy are both playing a role i n strengthening the sustaining competitiveness in technology and en ergy and resources, which will significantly affect competitiveness. It exerts a significant influence on the future development of a city. In the process of planning and development, the force the city has is very crucial, but still needs more joint efforts. Apart from the big incidence concerning politics, military, security a nd natural disasters, the current threat the world is facing is much ag glomeration and lack of reform. All governments of cities are dealing with different problems. The rise of emerging cities may bring a change to the structure of global cities. The infrastructures are particularly important. Experts or research team dissertate some of these issues Professor Saskia Sassen believed that the Specialized Differen ces were one key vector in urban competitiveness. Banji Oyelaran-Oyeyinka paid special attention to social and t echnological innovations in the Competitiveness of Cities. The team led by Lamia Kamal-Chaoui explored the developme nt of green cities and opportunities through the governance cas es study of the green growth in OECD countries Team of the Doing Business Project of the World Bank Group shows the relationship between the system and urb an competitiveness from the perspective of the business e nvironment. Peter·J·Taylor put forward the challenge facing world c ity network analysis GUCP team, led by Peter Karl Kresl and Pengfei Ni, re commended that the city's decision-makers should enhanc e the urban competitiveness of the focus on the driving fa ctors of the modern cities prosperity on the basis of the an alysis in the global cities experience.
