Migrant workers from South Asia pay some of the highest migration costs in the world, with total migration costs varying substantially across migration corridors. Four broad areas of action emerge as common priorities for Bangladesh, Nepal, and Pakistan to reduce the vulnerability of their labor migrants: (1) improve the institutional and regulatory framework to directly address information asymmetries; (2) prepare migrants adequately for working overseas—not just technically but also in cultural and language knowledge and soft skills; (3) enhance public sector intermediation to complement private sector recruitment agencies, or even as an alternative; and (4) enhance the capacity of governments to support migrants while they remain overseas.
