Perspectives on Remittances in 2024
February 16 @ 12:30 pm - 5:00 pm
Recent data shows that a competitive and diverse number of money transfer operators are participating in this regional growth. Yet different developments in 2024 may point to shifts among underlying factors driving remittance growth. Typically continued migration, increases in principal remitted, new migrant senders, and market incentives are some determinants of growth. Additional issues include regulations or changes in the competitive landscape. A proposal to impose a tax on remittances in Florida and stricter immigration policies from the Biden administration present political challenges.
How does the industry expect remittances to evolve alongside migration patterns in the year ahead? What are the factors preventing or shaping these expectations differently? How are partners in Latin America and the Caribbean performing and what are they signaling in terms of payments? To what extent do US politics affect migration and remittance flows? Is there any foreseeable impact in the competition to watch? Will pricing exhibit any shifts or will it continue its regular performance? Join us at the Inter-American Dialogue on February 16, 2024 from 12:30 to 1:45 PM EST for a dynamic discussion on the year ahead.
