Output Growth Volatility and Remittances
Open accessAbstract
Output growth volatility has negative effects on growth, poverty and welfare. The empirical literature has therefore searched for country-specific factors affecting volatility and focused on financial development, policy distortions, trade and financial openness. Using the same empirical framework, we focus on migrants' remittances that can help to reduce output growth volatility thanks to their size, stability and low procyclicality. In a cross-section of about 60 emerging and developing economies over the period 1980–2003, we show that indeed remittances are negatively correlated to output growth volatility. Instrumental variable estimation suggests that the effect of remittances is of a causal nature.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
