According to the latest Global Financial Centres Index (GFCI 24) by Z/Yen Partners and the China Development Institute(CDI), the Mother City is now the country’s financial centre. Cape Town makes its debut on the list, coming in at 38th while Johannesburg is at 57th, down five places from the previous rankings. Casablanca in Morocco still leads the way on the African continent in 32nd place, though.
