Mapping Financial Centres
This review provides evidence of IFCs for developing countries by analysing capital movements to and from selected regions
Abstract
This review provides suggestive evidence of key International Financial Centres (IFCs) for developing countries by analysing capital movements to and from selected regions and economies. While these capital flows are not driven by tax considerations alone, their concentration in certain jurisdictions is suggestive. Through this analysis, it identifies 5 global IFCs that serve countries across the developing world.
