The BGC report unveils the best global cities for work—London. It is attributed to five features:

2. An extraordinary global network that leverages relationships inside the Commonwealth and reflects the fact that a large portion of the talent currently employed in London is from outside the country.
3. Plenty of financial opportunities.
4. A welcoming and multi-cultural brand.
5. Access to Europe and the USA.
In addition to this, Amsterdam continues to be the 2nd destination metropolis. But Dubai and Abu Dhabi, the two UAE cities, have emerged among the best global cities for work and have ranked 3rd and 4th.
