dc.description.abstractFor migrant workers all over the world, sending part of their earnings home to support their families and communities is common practice. Until recently, Uzbek workers living abroad paid fees as high as 10 percent to transfer these funds. Thanks to growing competition, those fees are coming down and recommended innovations are leading to more choices for consumers in Uzbekistan.en
