Australia’s role in Global Financial and Production Networks

该项目旨在解决对金融中心如何发展和如何在国际中心网络中竞争的认识严重不足的问题。澳大利亚的长期经济未来与在整个亚洲提供金融服务密切相关。然而，很少有人注意分析促进国际化的结构和网络，特别是悉尼和墨尔本作为东亚和东南亚金融中心网络中具有竞争力的金融中心的表现。利用专业的行业数据库和深入的案例研究方法，该项目计划研究支撑该网络增长的过程，绘制未来二十年的情景，并就2013-14年金融体系调查产生的政策影响提供建议。

The project intends to address a major deficit of knowledge about the ways financial centres develop and compete among a network of international centres. Australia’s long-term economic future is closely tied to providing financial services throughout Asia. Yet very little attention has been given to analysing the structures and networks that enable internationalisation, in particular the performance of Sydney and Melbourne as competitive financial centres within a network of financial centres in East and South-East Asia. Using specialist industry databases and intensive case study methods, this project plans to examine the processes underpinning the growth of this network, map scenarios for the next two decades, and advise on policy implications arising from the 2013–14 Financial System Inquiry.
