Synopsis
Workers' remittances are a major source of financing for developing countries and are important in Latin America and the Caribbean. This book deals with large heterogeneity in migration and remittances patterns across countries and regions. It explores various questions faced by policymakers when trying to respond to increasing remittances flows., Workers' remittances have become a major source of financing for developing countries and are especially important in Latin America and the Caribbean, which is at the top of the ranking of remittance receiving regions in the world. While there has been a recent surge in analytical work on the topic, this book is motivated by the large heterogeneity in migration and remittance patterns across countries and regions, and by the fact that existing evidence for Latin America and the Caribbean is restricted to only a few countries, such as Mexico and El Salvador. Because the nature of the phenomenon varies across countries, its development impact and policy implications are also likely to differ in ways that are still largely unknown. This book helps fill the gap by exploring, in the specific context of Latin America and Caribbean countries, some of the main questions faced by policymakers when trying to respond to increasing remittances flows. The book relies on cross-country panel data and household surveys for 11 Latin American countries to explore the development impact of remittance flows along several dimensions: growth, poverty, inequality, schooling, health, labor supply, financial development, and real exchange rates., Workers' remittances, a major source of financing for developing countries, are especially important in Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC), ranked at the top of remittance-receiving regions. Because of the variation in migration and remittances patterns across countries and regions and because existing evidence for LAC is often restricted to a few countries, the development impact and policy implications of remittances are likely to differ in ways still largely unknown. This book explores some of the main questions faced by policy makers when trying to respond to increasing remittances flows in the specific context of Latin American and Caribbean countries., If you wish to preorder this title please complete our order form and fax it to +1-703-661-1501.
