In a research made by Sun Star Cebu, Data from the National Statistics Office, now the Philippine Statistics Authority (PSA), in 2013 showed that only two out of every 10 OFWs managed to save at least half of all their remittances.
“Regardless of the amount of the cash remittances sent, for every 10 OFWs, six (61.7 percent) were able to save less than 25 percent of the total amount received, two (21.6 percent) were able to save from 25 percent to 49 percent of it, and about two (16.7 percent) saved 50 percent or more,” the PSA reported
One out of every 10 OFWs is broke, according to a separate MoneyMax.ph article published in the GMA News website.
It cited a 2011 study by Social Enterprise Development Partnerships Inc., which also found out that eight out of 10 OFWs who returned to the Philippines have no savings.
This research by Sun Star Cebu in its recent news report showed that OFWs best course<> of action after their stint abroad is to enter the world of entrepreneurship in order to maintain the lifestyle that they are used while they are living in abroad, and protect and grow their hard-earned money.
From July to September this year, OFWs sent some US$6.8 billion in cash remittances, according to figures posted on the central bank’s website. That amount is higher than the US$6.5 billion in cash remittances sent in the same months last year. (Sun Star Cebu)
Besides the opportunity to shop for business, OFWs, SMEs and other visitors can also shop for gifts. Exhibitors are retailing their products and services at very low prices only for this event.
