The Inter-American Dialogue will host a discussion on the findings of its latest report, “Trends in Remittances to Latin America and the Caribbean in 2014,” which takes a look at how levels of  remittances vary from country to country and are affected by a number of key factors,  including international relations among countries, migration policies, demographics, and  economic growth in both home and host countries. 

The report’s principal author, Manuel Orozco, director of the Dialogue’s Migration, Remittances, and Development Program, will offer opening summary remarks. Dilip Ratha of   KNOMAD – The World Bank and Ronald Schwartzman of UniTeller – Banorte will offer comments and insights.

This event is part of the Remittance Industry Observatory, an initiative that seeks to share information and analysis about the remittance market.
