| description |
Romania faces an acute population crisis
with an aging workforce and an increased number of emigrants
particularly from the young, highly educated/skilled
population. This paper uses a new cross-sectional data set
of Romanian emigrants to find which factors are related to
plans to return home permanently. The analysis pays
particular attention to differences in expected earnings and
skills and training acquired as a migrant. The study finds
that higher expected earnings in Romania and investment in
Romanian firms are positively correlated with plans to
return migrate. Policies that boost productivity and
therefore wages as well as policies that improve the
business climate could therefore encourage Romanian migrants
to return to Romania, moderating the negative consequences
of the declining and aging population, and increasing the
skill stock of the Romanian labor force. |
