Abstract

GMig2, the GTAP migration extension, is a globally consistent database of bilateral population, labor by skill, wages, and remittances that can be used for economic modeling of international migration issues. Although new databases have significantly improved access to migration data, information on the skills of migrant labor is incomplete and bilateral remittance data are unavailable. This paper examines the underlying data available and then outlines the assumptions and techniques used to construct bilateral data on migrant labor by skills, remittances, and wages.
