Remittance outflow from North America as a whole 1970-2022

The value of personal remittances sent from North America grew by nearly 10 percent between 2020 and 2021, a recovery from the previous year. 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, although it should be noted that remittances consist of more than that. Consumers with a second home abroad but who receive pensions from their country of origin can sometimes also be counted as remittances.

北美地区个人汇款的价值在2020年至2021年间实现了近10%的增长，这一增长是前一年度的复苏迹象。这一估算数据来源于世界银行，该数据基于国际货币基金组织（IMF）追踪的国家间支付平衡数据。此处所提供的一切数据均源于此单个国家的数据汇总。据该数据来源补充说明，所谓“个人汇款”既包括居民与非居民个人之间的转账，也包括雇员的报酬。因此，根据定义，此处展示的数字主要聚焦于移民工人，尽管应当指出，汇款所包含的内容远不止于此。此外，那些在国外拥有第二住所但领取本国养老金的消费者有时也可被计入汇款范畴。
