- W164713014 abstract "This thesis examines the economic effects of both international and domesticremittances on Filipino households. The thesis investigates three main researchquestions: (1) “Which household characteristics affect the probability and the size ofdomestic and international remittances migrant households received?”; (2) “How dothese two sources of remittances Filipino households received affect welfare inequalityat the household level?”; (3) “How do the remittances affect the recipient household’sexpenditure patterns, especially educational expenditures?” The data mainly used forthe thesis come from the nationally representative Family Income and ExpenditureSurvey (FIES) in the Philippines during the period of 1985-2006.With regard to the first question, the thesis finds that the levels of receivinginternational and domestic remittances are mutually related and reveals that there is adisplacement effect of remittances from abroad on those from within the country.Furthermore, the thesis also revealed that several explanatory factors such as the welfarelevel, the heads’ characteristics, the job-related factors, and the regional disparities aresignificant to determine both the probability and the size of receiving the remittances.Regarding the second question, the thesis shows that the receipt of internationalremittances could significantly contribute to an improvement in Filipino households’livelihoods at any welfare level and that it would cause expenditure inequality betweenFilipino households to widen over time. In contrast, the receipt of remittances fromwithin the Philippines did not exert a significant impact on improving the welfare.As for the last question, the thesis finds that the receipt of remittances from abroadwould increase the budget share for education as well as its absolute value. This resultsupports the idea that international remittances could contribute to the future Philippineeconomic growth via increase in human capital investment if the country sort out theissues on brain drain of educated migrants’ children." @default.
