This document reports on the remarkable achievements of the Financing Facility for Remittances (FFR) in its five years of operation. It provides an overview of the importance of remittances to development, the strategy that the Facility has adopted to date, and the lessons. 

The FFR Brief learned from the innovative projects it has financed. Looking forward, the report highlights the tremendous opportunities offered by large-scale distribution networks, adoption of new technologies, mobilization of migrant capital and partnering with the private sector. Each chapter has been designed to be readable as a stand-alone discussion of the specific topic area it addresses. As a number of projects resulted in lessons learned in multiple areas, projects may be mentioned more than once, and their impact in each topic area will be discussed separately.

El presente informe es el resumen de una compilación de estudios sobre remesas destinadas a Asia y el Pacífico que se publicará próximamente. Las conclusiones están basadas en una serie de estudios encomendados por el Fondo Internacional de Desarrollo Agrícola (FIDA) y realizados por Developing Markets Associates, Diálogo Interamericano, el Banco Mundial y el Instituto Mundial de Cajas de Ahorro, así como en estudios y análisis llevados a cabo por el Banco Mundial.
