While only just emerging onto the marketplace, the tier two and three cities of the emerging and newly
emerging locations mentioned here all offer attractive opportunities to multinationals, especially given the
proactive incentives offered by the governments to inward migration (see table below).

What these emerging locations offer in particular is the opportunity to scale up. What is attractive for
multinationals is that these tier two and tier three cities offer 10 to 25% savings on operating costs over
Metro Manila. For example, many of the emerging locations offer real estate rentals at rates that are 20 to
40% lower than Manila, and salaries that are 20 to 25% lower (see table below). What is notably lacking,
however, is experienced staff to lead an operation. That means that for the foreseeable future it will be
necessary to import senior leadership teams into the area.
