COLLAZOS RODRIGUEZ, Jaime Andrés  e  LONDONO MARTINEZ, Harold Herney. Global ranking of cities to attract industrial investment into the Latin American Pacific basin. estud.gerenc. [online]. 2014, vol.30, n.131, pp.103-114. ISSN 0123-5923.

Currently, there is a lack of information for investors, and particularly for those in the manufacturing industry about which Latin American Pacific city offers the best conditions to locate their industry. Our main aim with this paper was to develop a global cities rank in order to attract industrial investment into the Latin American Pacific area. The ranking was based on 6 pillars for attracting foreign investment, estimated by the method of principal components analysis of the ranges. The results indicate that the most attractive cities for industrial investment were those located in countries with strong economies, accompanied by an efficient port infrastructure and significant levels of innovation, science and technology.

Palavras-chave : Industrial location; Pacific basin; Principal component analysis.
