Abstract

In the present paper, we examine if ¡°higher wall¡± really hinders immigration i.e., if tightening of border enforcement reduces immigration. The framework we construct is a stochastic one where an individual intends immigration under uncertainty that is expressed by geometric Brownian motion. It is revealed that ¡°higher wall¡±, contrary to the intention of regulatory authorities, does not hinder immigration.
