"In particular, 17 of the 20 fastest-growing cities in the world between 2019 and 2035 will be Indian, with Bengaluru (Bangalore), Hyderabad, and Chennai among the strongest performers," said the report.
It also noted that outside of India, Phnom Penh is the fastest-growing city in the forecast, with Dar es Salaam the leader among the African cities. The report is authored by eminent economist Richard Holt.
Within Asia, the largest contribution to growth will come from Chinese cities, the report said, adding that in contrast, Indian cities remain small in GDP terms. "While their economies will grow fast, and in some cases their populations are huge, their overall output levels do not begin to compare with those of Chinese cities??either today or in 2035," it observed.
According to report, New York will still be the largest urban economy in the world in 2035 with the largest finance & business services sector. It will be followed by Tokyo and Los Angeles, with Shanghai now tied with London for the fourth place. Paris will slip in our GDP rankings, it added.
Indonesia's capital Jakarta will enter the top league of industrial cities, rising to eighth in the 2035 industrial output ranking.
By then it will also boast the world's largest urban population at 38 million??nudging ahead of Tokyo, which nonetheless remains at the top of our industrial output table, the report noted. Fellow Japanese cities Osaka-Kyoto and Nagoya will, however, make way for the Chinese cities of Chongqing, Shenzhen and Tianjin, with Houston the fifth largest industrial city in 2035.
