Through Euromoney’s inaugural Global Cities’ survey, New York City was voted the best city in the world to do business: attracting the best talent, business and investment, and global corporations and financial institutions. On March 22, New York City representatives Robert K. Steel, New York Deputy Mayor for Economic Development and Seth Pinsky, President of New York City Economic Development Corporation attended a ceremony where they were presented with the Award. 

A panel discussion followed where attendees examined key factors underpinning New York’s financial competitiveness and more broadly, the lessons it can provide to infrastructural challenges facing the ‘21st century City.’ Mr. Thomas Green, Citi, and Mr. Baldomero Falcones, FCC, also spoke about the future structures and financing models of cosmopolitan centers.

About the Global Cities Survey

The Euromoney Global Cities Survey is a comprehensive benchmark on the competitiveness of 83 financial centres in 57 countries around the world. The survey integrates hard data on the financial drivers of cities with a survey that gauges the perception of c-suite executives. This approach results in a comprehensive data set that can assist institutions in making their investment decisions.
