Volume of Remittances to Azerbaijan Reduced
The volume of remittances to Azerbaijan from abroad reduced last year.
As stated in the report on monetary policy on the website of the Central Bank (CBA), compatriots living abroad, and this is a major slice of this segment, transferred their relatives $ 1 billion 183 million. It's 1.5 times less than the results of 2014, when the citizens of the country through transfers received $ 1 billion 709 million. This figure accurately reflects the decrease in the earnings of Azeri migrant workers residing mainly in the CIS countries and Turkey. --17D-
