Description :
This paper discusses the changing spatial concentration of the headquarters of large companies in Australia between 1953 and 2009. The first part involves a consideration of how shareholders’ funds and company profits are concentrated within the Top 100 firms. The second part considers the changing spatial distribution of headquarters within the urban system, focusing not only on Australia’s largest cities, Sydney and Melbourne, but also on the country’s ‘second-tier cities’. It demonstrates that rather than radical restructuring and upheaval in the geography of Australia's corporate headquarters, the process over the past sixty years or so has been one of gradual and relatively ordered change.
