Second, your list is financial centers, not trading centers. Trading is one part of financial activity. Chicago is consistently in the top three centers for trading. There basically are New York, London, and Chicago. Sometimes Hong Kong, Tokyo, and Singapore get honorable mentions.

Yep ever since banking consolodation Chicago has been missing out on having a Big Bank HQ. Now Discover Financial, Wintrust, Northern Trust are the largest. Why cant we have a PNC from PA, 5/3 from Cincy/Clev??
