Abstract

This paper looked at 12 International Financial Centers (IFCs) in the Asia-Pacific region by employing hierarchical cluster analysis and principal component analysis and applying them to 10 financial variables. This study has demonstrated that as a result of increased foreign financial institutions’ participation and the expansion of markets’ size, Shanghai is fast closing up the gap with other major IFCs. Shanghai might pose a challenge not only to Hong Kong but also to Tokyo in the next few years if China’s Government further liberalizes its financial markets to foreigners and augments the range of financial instruments.
