Abstract: Geographies of global service provision are derived from data describing 100 financial and business service firms across 123 cities. The data describe the global strategies of the service firms in terms of their office networks. Using a principal components analysis six different patterns of globalisation are identified that result from an interaction of different service sectors with particular world regions through a hierarchy of world cities.
