The value of personal remittances sent to Asia-Pacific bar the territories in Southeast Asia increased by nearly eight percent between 2020 and 2021, the largest increase since 2012. This is according to estimates made by the World Bank on data from the IMF that tracked the balance of payments between countries. All figures provided here have been summed from this individual country's data. The source adds that "personal remittances" consist of both personal transfers between resident and nonresident individuals, as well as the compensation of employees. By definition, then, the numbers shown here focus on migrant workers and likely includes remittances sent from the Middle East to India or Bangladesh.
