Abstracts

Glasgow stands as one of top 20 European financial hubs and the second-largest retail centre in the UK. Despite many well-paid jobs in finance and in a strong commerce sector, the city also faces acute challenges, such as high unemployment or income inequality. The labour force in Glasgow is rather polarised, with significant inequalities in education and the skills of the population, which limits the city's opportunities for development.
