What's new

Haters gonna hate but the future belongs to us! :D

Oh come on, everyone knows India's construction boom is a bubble that's about to burst, global real estate giants like Lamudi are wise enough to stay out of that day dreaming. :lol:

Tsk tsk, yes yes Lamudi is suddenly the authority on world economy. No Chinese city, no East Asian city, no Indian city, this list seems legit!

Its like winning a bronze in special Olympics, and then going up to the participants of the real Olympics and trying to rub it in their face! Get real guys, Bangladesh has a lot going for itself, but CTG being a future financial hub just doesn't make sense.

In fact India as a single country doesn't make sense but who cares....
 
London won't dominate forever
Chittagong among top 5 int'l finance hubs of the future
Paul Hermann

Chittagong, a major coastal seaport city and financial centre in southeastern Bangladesh, has been forecasted as an emerging financial powerhouse of the future world.

A recent opinion piece by Paul Hermann, the co-founder and managing director of Lamudi, a global real estate portal, expects the world will witness the continued growth of Chittagong along with four other financial hubs over the coming years.

The article reads that, at the moment, western cities such as New York and London dominate as international financial centres, but increasingly hotspots are emerging in the developing world and catching the attention of investors.

The five emerging financial powerhouses undergoing infrastructural and technological developments and becoming increasingly attractive to international financial corporations looking for new opportunities are as follows:

1. Dubai

Dubai is the biggest financial hub in the Middle East, but not yet in the world. Home to international powerhouses such as Goldman Sachs and JPMorgan Chase, the city is becoming an increasingly influential player in global finance. Its enticing tax laws, stable banking system, and favourable business environment are putting it on the map.

2. Doha

Neighbouring Doha is also steadily growing its reputation as a financial hub. As oil prices fluctuate, both UAE and Qatari leaders are focusing on diversifying their economies in a move away from dependence on the oil and gas sector. As a result, the financial sector is moving into the spotlight, to attract international investment into the Middle East.

3. Makati

This is the Philippines’ most important central business district. I believe in the coming years it will become a globally recognised financial hotspot. It is home to headquarters of the country’s largest banks, and the main trading floor of the Philippine Stock Exchange. Furthermore, the city boasts the highest concentration of local and multinational companies, and major banks in the Makati Central Business District (CBD).

4. Mexico City

In 2014, Mexico City, Mexico’s most important financial centre, had 62 greenfield investment projects in progress, valued at $2,243m. We have seen rapid urbanisation into Mexico’s major cities, and as the country’s focus shifts from agriculture to industry, Mexico City's financial centre is set to benefit big time. It already boasts an international stock exchange, and attracts a growing number of foreign property investors, who value Mexico’s proximity to the United States.

5. Chittagong

This major commercial, industrial and financial hub in the south of Bangladesh is developing fast. The Chittagong Stock Exchange has more than 700 listed companies, while the city itself is home to a number of Bangladesh’s largest corporations. Its strategic location in close proximity to Myanmar and India makes Chittagong an interesting consideration for international financial service providers. Furthermore, the proposal to build road connectivity from Chittagong to Kunming, Southwest China, via Cox’s Bazar and Myanmar, will create an economic corridor to strengthen infrastructure in the region.

The opinion piece also observed that while these markets can currently prove challenging in many ways, as they are immature and often gripped by political tensions, they offer great opportunities as long as well-researched decisions are made and realistic strategies are in place.

In many emerging markets, the global community is seeing the young, dynamic populations entering the workforce, stated the article. “These talented, ambitious workers are driving innovation. Where there is innovation and determination there is opportunity for success.”

You should have read the list carefully.Makati, Philippines is an East asian city. And chinese city like Shanghai,Hong Kong are already global financial hub, so no point predicting them to be in future.

Last I checked the Philippines was in South East Asia, guess they teach different geography in Bangladesh.
