Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

The McKinsey Global Institute, an economic think-tank, last year published a report on global housing. The report finds that City dwellers globally pay $650bn a year more on housing costs than they can afford and wages of low income earners lag growth in housing costs leading to greater income inequality and out-migration of skilled workers.
