A British thinktank published a “Global Financial Centres Index” ranking financial centers in 79 cities and territories around the world according to their international competitiveness. First was London, second was New York, third was Hong Kong, and fourth was Singapore. Tokyo was in sixth place, but came in third for the number of companies listed on its stock market. A structure for increasing investment in Tokyo needs to be created. For example, Tokyo needs to actively attract foreign financial institutions and become home to large numbers of investors and analysts from overseas.
