REFERENCES"" 330 3 $aIn the last decade Cape Verde has experienced a strong accumulation of emigrant deposits. These deposits have provided much needed foreign exchange to the country, adding support to the exchange rate peg. This paper studies the long-run determinants of emigrant deposits with respect to risk, wealth, and return variables, isolating speculative and altruistic motives underlying the accumulation of flows. The study suggests that the temporary character of recent emigration is responsible for the rise in the share of flows driven by altruism. Finally, the paper discusses policy implications in light of the empirical findings and the recent literature on this topic. 410 0$aIMF working paper ;$vWP/06/132. 606 $aEmigrant remittances$zCape Verde 606 $aEmigration and immigration$xEconomic aspects$zCape Verde 615 0$aEmigrant remittances 615 0$aEmigration and immigration$xEconomic aspects 700 $aKarpowicz$b I$g(Izabela)$01761128 712 02$aInternational Monetary Fund.$bAfrican Dept. 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910817457003321 996 $aDeterminants of emigrant deposits in Cape Verde$94200398 997 $aUNINA
