Siting of the offices of largest transnational corporation in the global cities of the USA
The initial hypothesis about the nodal role of the largest US agglomerations in the spatial structure of transnational business and the core importance of just several centers (with New-York being an absolute leader) for the foreign economic cooperation of the country at the level of transnational corporations is proved by the analysis. Geography of the largest world economies represented in the global cities of the USA is described, as well as the factors governing the location of foreign corporations. A dual model of office location is based on the combination of business interests, specific features and specialization of companies and potential, resources and prospects of a city.
