The cyclicality and volatility, as well as the joint determinants of FDI and Remittances are reviewed. 2014-04-24T14:14:15Z 2014-04-24T14:14:15Z 2014-04-24 978-1-4648-0286-7 10.1596/978-1-4648-0286-7 http://hdl.handle.net/10986/18029 en_US LAC Semiannual Report;April 2014 CC BY 3.0 IGO http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/igo Washington, DC: World Bank Publications & Research :: Publication Latin America & Caribbean Caribbean Latin America
