Where the money is modelled to come from, 2021

The corridor matrix is a model, not a measurement

The 10,229 corridors in this matrix (212 sending economies, 175 receiving) are not observed payments. The World Bank builds it by allocating each country’s total recorded receipts across origins using bilateral migrant stocks and origin-destination incomes. A corridor value is therefore an estimate produced by that allocation rule. The matrix exists for one year, 2021, and no other.

The matrix routes $1.57B into Bermuda for 2021, from 27 origin countries. The five largest account for 97.7% of that total. The balance-of-payments series reports $1.66B of receipts for 2021, so the modelled total is 4.9% below it.
