Specifically, we incorporate a two-sector framework for the latter: traditional non-traded and foreign capital dependent traded sector while introducing collateral effects of remittances. The results from extensive calibration exercises show that remittances in the presence of labor migration hurts the traded sector of the developing economy, leading to a contraction in aggregate output in the long run. Albeit to a lesser extent, the contraction persists even with the expansionary impacts of remittances through a collateral effect, giving rise to a phenomenon known as a migration-remittance trap.<\/p>\n<p><em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cd-center.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/P122_20210809_EN.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Download in English<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>AUTHOR *Sokchea Lim is an assistant professor and Mulwick scholar in the Department of Economics and Finance at John Carroll University, Ohio, U.S. He holds a PhD in Economics from Southern Illinois University Carbondale, U.S. **Channary Khun is an independent researcher and currently works as a consultant at International Fund for Agricultural Development (IFAD).
