Hi, I'm Viyu. Ask me about the stories collected here. I answer only from them, with numbered links to the outlets that published them, and I say so when they do not cover it.
The Maldives Monetary Authority reported that US$72 million (about MVR 1.1 billion) was remitted overseas in 2023, a 40 percent rise from 2022. Expatriates accounted for 84 percent (US$59 million) of the outflows, with Bangladesh receiving 54 percent, the largest share.
