Too Long; Didn't Read
Remittance is the transfer of money from a migrant worker to someone back in their home country. People have always moved in search of better work prospects in high-income (or high currency value as compared to home) countries. Based on the <a href="https://www.iom.int/wmr/world-migration-report-2018" target="_blank">World Migration Report 2018</a>, there are currently an estimated 244 million international migrants living in other countries. This number has either directly or indirectly contributed to the global remittance’s $689 billion dollar industry with India being top of the pile, contributing $80 Billion or 11.6% of its entirety. The global remittance industry <strong>is expected to grow by more than 3% in 2019.</strong>
