Description :
The validity of some theories of economic geography is tested on the basis of financial statement data. The performances of these enterprises are analysed in these three functional urban regions. The average companies in the centre of the research area show weaker financial performances than those in the periphery. The same pattern emerges if focused solely on trade companies. For industrial companies, the reversal of the centre-periphery relations is not obvious.
