Revenus, épargne et transferts d'économies des immigrés maliens et sénégalais en France

Abstract: Les transferts d'économies des travailleurs immigrés jouent un rôle important pour leur pays d'origine, entre autres comme source de devises , mais le manque de fiabilité des statistiques officielles rend difficile une quantification précise de ce phénomène. Une enquête menée en 1998 auprès de deux cents travailleurs immigrés maliens et sénégalais sur leurs habitudes d'épargne, les modalités de transferts qu'ils utilisent et leur finalité économique permet de mieux cerner cette pratique.

“…Research in France in 1998 showed that 174 out of 201 West African respondents sent money home, 108 on a regular basis (Blion & Witeska 1998). The regularity can vary as well as the amount (a small sum monthly, an extra budget for festivities or emergencies, presents and investment during return visits) (Robin 1996a), but in this study it added to about 10 to 15 per cent of the annual income.…”
