Global | Mid-2021: the evolving outlook for cities around the world

- Many Asia Pacific cities saw recovery well underway in 2020. We have already revised up our estimates for GDP in both 2020 and 2021.
- Among individual major cities, Paris has tended to move broadly in line with Europe as a whole, whereas London and the UK have followed their own path.
- But the dramatic revision has been to prospects for US cities, thanks to the election of President Biden.
