Abstract

This study investigates the impacts of workers’ remittances on real exchange rates and net export by using data for 101 developing countries from 1990 to 2015. One challenge in addressing the impacts of remittances on real exchange rates is the endogeneity of remittances. To address the endogeneity of remittances, we estimate bilateral remittances and use them to create weighted indicators of remittance-sending countries. These weighted indicators are used as instruments for remittance inflow to remittance-receiving countries. Results obtained in this study indicate that remittances lead to real exchange rates appreciation and net export reduction in remittance-receiving countries.

汇款对汇率和净出口的影响

本研究利用1990年至2015年101个发展中国家的数据，考察了工人汇款对实际汇率和净出口的影响。解决汇款对实际汇率影响的一个挑战是汇款的内生性。为了解决汇款的内生性问题，我们对双边汇款进行了估算，并用它们来创建汇款输出国的加权指标。这些加权指标被用作衡量汇款流入接受国的工具。本研究的结果表明，汇款导致汇款接受国的实际汇率升值和净出口减少。
