"world class" and financial importance

I appreciate what you mean, but "world class" isn't just about shopping, fashion, or big events.

The amount of financial clout that a given city has is factored into it as well.

I'm not saying I agree with the Loughborough study, but it did have some good points and is worth having a look at anyway.

I still find it difficult to believe that Vancouver made it into THIS study, and Los Angeles did not, apparently. Seems a bit incongruous.
