Abstract

This policy paper sets out why urbanisation is a central consideration for national economic growth strategies. By building well-functioning cities, governments can support the businesses and workers that fuel growth. Improving the conditions in which businesses operate – from ‘hard’ physical infrastructure to the ‘soft’ legal and administrative environment – can stimulate investment, create jobs, and unlock more dynamic urban economies.
