A list of the richest and most influential cities in
the world in 2012 was released by British real estate agent Knight Frank
and Citibank of U.S. on Wednesday.
The ranking is based on the
comprehensive analysis of four indexes: Economic vitality, political
influence, research ability and living standard.
New York, London and Paris occupy the top 3 positions. Beijing is listed in the ninth place.
However, no city is the
all-rounder. For instance, New York took the lead at the ranking of
indexes of "economic vitality" and "research ability", but its political
influence came in second place and living standard even No. 8!
Meanwhile, some metropolises have
had markedly progress, such as Beijing,whose political influence
advanced to No. 4, and Berlin, which is the runner-up in the ranking of
living standard.
