Abstract

The article is concerned with the impact of external labor migration on the financial and economic sphere of countries hosting foreign labor. The authors have developed a methodological approach to assessing labor migration impact on the development of the financial and budgetary sphere of the host countries. The method lies in using a quantitative analysis algorithm consisting of three stages. The first stage is to identify specific positive and negative effects of labor
immigration on the financial and budgetary sphere of the host country. The second stage is to develop a system of analytical indicators and its implementation methodology to assess the impact of these effects on the financial and budgetary sphere. The third stage is to define the methods for collecting statistical information, necessary to design the system of analytical indicators. This methodological approach allows assessing the impact of labor migration on the financial and budgetary sphere of the host country on such key aspects as migrant worker remittances and the government revenues from foreign workers. The dynamics analysis of the proposed indicators will allow to make prompt decisions in preventing negative trends and maximizing positive effects of external labor migration.
