Global Urban Economic Competitiveness Report 2015-2016

I. The slowing down global economic integration and
synchronized recovery
In 2013, the world economy continued its weak recovery from the
latest international financial crisis. The economic increment of developed
economies and emerging economies was somewhat differentiated. The
sluggish economy and financial turmoil in emerging markets diluted the
joy of the developed countries gained from recovery. The pace of global
economic integration and synchronized recovery had slowed. Among
major economies, the US economy continued to grow thanks to the
manufacturing recovery, the real estate recovery and the shale gas
revolution, and in anticipation of economic recovery, the US government
was the first to withdraw from a five-year-old hyper-normal monetary
policy of quantitative easing. The European economy rose from recession
and its contribution to global growth shifted from negative to positive.
The Japanese economy continued to recover. The “three arrows” of
Abenomics had eased the chronic economic downturn and deflation.
China stood out among emerging economies. This year, the Third Plenary
Session of the 18th Central Committee of the Communist Party of China
sounded the reform horn. The China (Shanghai) Pilot Free Trade Zone
was officially launched. The dividends of domestic reform were
continuously released, and the opening-up opened a new page. Overall,
the Chinese economy continued to grow steadily and rapidly.
In 2013, the urbanization level of developed countries remained
high, and that of emerging economies continued to increase. The urban
population of China reached 730 million, and the urbanization rate
reached 53.7%, basically reaching the world average level. In addition,
significant technological advances were made around the world in 2013,
such as the 3D printing technology in the United States, graphene
applications in the United Kingdom, fuel cell catalysts in Germany, the
world’s thinnest nanofibers developed in Japan and the new
superconducting materials developed in Russia. The global technology
sector was booming.
II. Global Comparison
Some of the top 20 global competitive cities in 2013 have changed
from 2012.The top three cities in the global competitiveness rankings
remained unchanged, with New York, Singapore and Munich, as well as
Paris and London in the same order.Nine cities rose in the global
competitiveness ranking, with Beijing and Guangzhou leading the way,
up 11 and 10 places respectively from 2012.A total of five cities dropped
in the ranking, with the biggest drop being Geneva, down eight places
from 2012.

From the regional distribution of the top 20 cities in the world, the
largest number of the top 20 cities in each continent is Asia, with 8 cities
in the list, followed by North America and Europe, with 6 cities in the
list.In terms of economic increment, Beijing, Shanghai and Singapore all
stayed in the rankings, with Munich, San Francisco, SAN jose, Dallas-
fort verworth and Frankfurt gaining the most, while Geneva, Doha and
Moscow all dropped from last year's rankings.From the point of
economic density, a slight drop in New York, Moscow, six city ranking
remains the same in other cities, is Singapore, Paris, Frankfurt, Munich,
Boston, Geneva, the remaining 12 global cities in varying degree rise, the
biggest rise in Shenzhen, improves the 10 global rankings. Table Economic Increment of the World's 20 Most Competitive Cities

From the point of view of the overall urban competitiveness index
and the mean value of economic increment, there is a small decrease, and
from the point of view of the global urban economic density, there is a
small increase.From the perspective of overall urban competitiveness
index and the coefficient of variation of economic increment, the
fluctuation range presents a small increase, while from the perspective of
global urban economic density, the fluctuation range presents a small
decrease.In terms of the distribution of changes in the global
competitiveness ranking of cities from 2013 to 2012, Chinese cities have
improved the most.According to the economic density index distribution
of global cities, the cities with higher economic density are mainly
distributed in North America and Western Europe.

Figure Distribution of Changes in Global Urban Competitiveness Rankings 2012 vs. 2013
By comparing the competitiveness of cities in different continents, it
is found that the average ranking of the competitiveness of cities is North
America, Europe, South America, Asia and Africa, and the fluctuation
range of the competitiveness of cities from large to small is Europe,
Africa, Asia, North America and South America. In conclusion, the urban
competitiveness in Africa and Asia is characterized by low average value
and great fluctuation.
The comparative analysis of urban economic increment in different
continents shows that the average rank of urban economic increment is
North America, Asia, Europe, South America and Africa, and the
fluctuation range of urban economic increment is Africa, Asia, North
America, South America and Europe. To sum up, Africa's economic
increment is characterized by low average value and high volatility.
According to the comparative analysis of the urban economic
density in different continents, the average ranking of urban economic
density is North America, Europe, South America, Asia and Africa from
the largest to the smallest, and the fluctuation range of urban economic
density is Africa, Asia, Europe, North America and South America from
the largest to the smallest. In summary, North America and Europe have
relatively high urban densities, while Africa and Asia have relatively low
urban densities and greater internal differentiation.Table Simple Statistics of Urban Competitiveness by Continent

Based on the above comparisons, the following three findings can be
drawn:
First, from the intercontinental distribution of top cities in the world,
that is, if you look at the intercontinental distribution of top 20 cities in
the world, it can be found that the influence of Asian cities in the world
has jumped dramatically, while Africa and South America lack the top 20
cities in the world. In terms of the number of top 20 cities in the world,
Asia has the largest number of cities in the list, with a total of 8 cities,
while North America and Europe have 6 cities in the list.
Second, the comparison of urban competitiveness and economic
increment in different continents shows that the urban competitiveness
and economic increment in Africa and Asia are characterized by low
average value and large fluctuation. A comparative analysis of the
economic density of cities in different continents shows that the density
of cities in North America and Europe is relatively high, while the density
of cities in Africa and Asia is low and the internal differentiation is large.
Third, from the comparison of the economic density of typical
countries, the economic density of American cities in developed countries
is increasing, while that of Chinese cities in emerging economies is
increasing. In addition, the economic density of German cities is among
the highest in the world, with 4 German cities in the top 10.
