Can't believe I forgot that part as well. Yes, the language factor is important. Given that the 2 largest financial cities (London and New York) are located in English speaking countries, I suppose it slipped my mind how the language barrier would affect the ultimate decision on where businesses decide to migrate.

This was the sticking point with the NYT analysis in placing Amsterdam first, since according to their data 90% of the country/city speaks English or have a passing knowledge of the language.
