Measuring the investment risks derived : from the discrepancies between the global cities rankings
ABSTRACT
The globalization process has plunged into many aspects. One of
them is related to the global cities and the investment streams
but, what represents the global city related to the invertors and
the economy itself? Last decades, global cities have show
themselves as powerful nodes to attract foreign investment. In
this scope, knowing which the global cities are and their worldwide
ranking has become a crucial tool in order to decide the most
appropriate spot to invest. However, cities are really complex
systems and even the most renowned rankings have proven
themselves incapable to represent them correctly, leading to
incoherencies between their results. This article analyzes the
discrepancies between different rankings and quantifies the
investment risk that this misleading causes in different cities.La
gouvernance des forêts publiques au Québec connait
actuellement une période de transition caractérisée par
l’intégration progressive de nouvelles lignes directrices dans les
pratiques de gestion des forêts publiques.
