Remittances
The question
To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, what information her Department holds on the amount of overseas remittances by (a) nationality and (b) country of receipt in each of the last 10 years.
Answered by Emma Reynolds
The Treasury does not collect or report data on the flow of remittances out of the UK. However, the World Bank publishes data annually on remittances through formal banking systems. Further information can be found on the World Bank’s website: https://www.worldbank.org/en/topic/migration/brief/remittances-knomad
