Thesis Abstract / Summary:
This paper analyses the effect of emigration on unemployment in the Philippines. Taking the current financial crisis as an exogenous shock to the number of Filipino emigrants, we run a difference-in-difference regression at the regional level to estimate the effect of a reduction in emigration on unemployment. We do not find evidence that emigration has an impact on unemployment.
