International Financial Centres in
the post-crash era
Vanessa Rossi, Senior Research Fellow, Chatham House
March 2009
Overview
• The global recession and financial storm has
not yet abated – a stress test of survival
• The crisis has highlighted the massive
increase in balance sheet risks compared
with national incomes
• Iceland marked the end of the “small
country-big bank” model of global finance
• Yet banks will become more important as
financial intermediaries if saving deposits
rise and retail investors shun risk: the
“Tokyo scenario”
2
World trade smashed by storm
• 2009 may be down 20-30% versus 2007 data –
larger losses for Japan and the energy exporters

Investment trends: exodus from risk creates global asset imbalance
High growth and
inflation
The US: “The Anglo
Saxon Model”
• US financial wealth was
$60-65trn, over 4x GDP
The EU: “Balanced
Portfolio”
• Total financial wealth
similar to US
•But household wealth
held in equities lower
Risk averse
JAPAN: Cash
• Wealth $30 trn
•Nearly 55% of
household wealth
in bank deposits
Low growth and inflation
• Under 15% of household
wealth in bank deposits, as
much as 50% in equities and
corporate bonds

Implications:
• Big banks: few “global players”, a cluster in
the US, China and Japan and, arguably, the
Gulf region backed also by “oil deposits”
• Europe - cross-border issues?
• Other IFCs will have to focus heavily on
financial services with low balance sheet
exposure – stiff competition
• London may be the most affected of the
major financial centres – this crisis is the
banking equivalent of previous restructuring
in reinsurance and Lloyds of London

• High estimate: bond
holdings rise to match
equity stakes
• Low estimate: no
increase in holdings
except for modest
increase in equity
investments based on
maintaining share of
market
The Asian debt market should expand
• Critical to rebalance global asset demand
and supply and to fund development in low
savings countries such as India, Bangladesh,
Vietnam
• Potential to grow dramatically - possibly
$1trillion pa?
• Japan would be a key participant here
• e.g. Samurai bonds: “rare oasis” during
credit crunch. Froze after Lehman collapse
but reopened in February: $2.2bn (Westpac),
$1.5bn (Indonesia)

Recommendations regarding the City
of London Surveys
• Two possibilities for consideration:
• (1) The report may be more widely understood and accepted
as a barometer of IFCs performance and strength if it were to
adopt a two-pronged strategy and rankings:
• Firstly comparing countries’ leading international financial
centres (ex: London, New York, Tokyo)
• Secondly comparing secondary (regional or niche) financial
centres around the world (ex: Chicago, Geneva, Channel
Islands)
• This might help focus attention on the most critical factors in
the international surveys and underlying changes in view.
• (2) Greater methodological weight could be placed on the size
and development of financial sectors rather than on “ease of
access” type factors. We agree that it is important to preserve
the nuances brought into the survey by the direct personal
input of market participants and these are not an issue.
GFCI5 divided into international and
secondary centres: more representative
