RISING GLOBAL MIGRANT POPULATION 26 INTERNATIONAL MIGRANTS HAVE INCREASED BY ABOUT 60 MILLION IN THE LAST 13 YEARS and now total more than 230 million equivalent to the 5th most populous country in the world The fastest-growing period of migration was the 1980s. From 1990 to 2013, migration increased an additional 5 reaching 232 million people. Migration is expected to continue growing to reach 266 million by 2040. In general, migration numbers are underreported because national censuses do not capture temporary migration International Migrants Population (In Millions, 1960-2040) Forecast 266 221 232 154 175 77 84 102 Compounded Annual Growth Rate for every period (In %) 1960 0.9% 1970 1980 1990 2010 2013 1.9% 4. 1. 2. 1.6% 0.5% 2040 Country Equivalent Ranking in terms of Population 7 th 8 th 8 th 5 th 5 th 5 th 5 th 6 th Sources: United Nations Population Division; Examining the Role of International Migration in Global Population Projections, Abel, K.C, et. al., 2014 Looking Ahead 167
MOST MIGRANTS COME FROM THE WORKING AGE POPULATION, with female migrants representing 4 and the brain drain being highest in Africa Three-quarters of global migrants are within the working age, signaling that their primary reason for migrating is for income and job purposes. The median age of migrants in the North (developed world) is 42 years, versus 33 in the South, according to the International Organization for Migration. The difference is partly explained by the fact that migrants coming from the South to the North enjoy higher living standards and are thus likely to stay longer. The brain drain is most pronounced in Africa, where the percentage of skilled emigrants as a share of all emigrants is almost 10% Migrants by Age, Gender and Skills (In %, 2013 and 2010/11) Migrants by Regions Africa Asia Latin America & The Caribbean North America 0-9 13.6 3.7 9.5 12.9 2.9 6.0 10-14 7.6 3.0 4.9 6.3 2.7 3.4 Age 15-29 30-39 29.0 19.4 11.1 22.5 26.3 23.2 14.0 18.7 11.2 23.3 10.2 19.4 40-49 14.1 20.9 15.0 16.1 22.8 20.2 50-64 12.4 23.4 12.8 18.9 23.8 24.7 65+ 3.8 15.4 8.3 13.2 13.3 16.1 Male 54 Female 46 48 52 58 42 48 52 49 51 50 50 Gender Skills as Measure by the Emigration Rate of the Highly Educated (In %, 2010/2011) 10.8 5.3 7.4 4.8 3.3 0.8 Source- Upper and Middle Charts: United Nations Population Division Source- Lower Chart: World Migration in Figures, OECD-UNDESA, Oct. 2013 168 Looking Ahead

THE SOUTH-SOUTH AND SOUTH-NORTH CORRIDORS ARE THE TWO MAJOR CHANNELS FOR MIGRANT MOVEMENT with the Mexico- corridor being the largest globally In 2013, the number of international migrants born in the South who live in the North reached ~81 million. The South-South Migration corridor has become the largest one. Some OECD research shows that large South-South migration has different dynamics where host countries generally find it hard to integrate immigrants into society (as opposed to a generally more ethnically homogeneous North).

LABOR MIGRATION INTO OECD COUNTRIES HAS DECLINED, with migrants suffering from higher unemployment rates and arriving mostly from Labor immigration has been utilized in many OECD countries (and in in particular) as a way to mitigate the ageing population problem. While this has helped in the short run, in the long run an overreliance on these policies will likely be problematic. Moreover, the data shows that foreign-born workers fare much less favorably in labor markets and face much higher unemployment rates than native born workers Permanent Immigration in OECD Countries for Work (In Thousand, 2007-2012) EU-27 Unemployment Rate across Migrants and Native-Born (In %, 2007-2012) 738 725 684 680 630 555 11 11 15 8 15 9 14 9 16 10 7 7 s 65+ as % of total population 2007 2008 2009 2010 2011 2012 1 17. 17. 17.5% 17.6% 17. 2007 2008 2009 2010 2011 2012 Foreign-born Native-born Immigrants Labor Force by Place of Birth and Country of Residence (In Million, Latest Available Data) Africa 3.6 207.4 Asia (130.9) Turkey (25.5) North America 71.3 Japan (63.0) Mexico (33.2) 8.3 (36.5) Spain (15.0) UK (26.6) Canada (14.7) Italy (21.0) France (23.1) 43.6 125.8 South America and the Caribbean Top 10 OECD Destinations Sources- Upper Charts: International Migration Outlook, OECD, 2014; EuroStat Source- Lower Chart: OECD Indicators Looking Ahead 171

MIGRANTS SEEKING REFUGE OR THOSE INTERNALLY DISPLACED HAVE MORE THAN DOUBLED SINCE, driven mostly by rising conflict Refugees, asylum seekers and internally displaced people have increased about 6% a year since. The growth in the incidence of forced migration is mostly a result of persecution, conflict, generalized violence, or human rights violations. The number of IDPs and refugees has been highest in Syria with a large number leaving to the neighboring countries of Lebanon and Jordan. Some initial estimates show that 3.8 million Syrian refugee and IDP children are without schooling. Pakistan tops the list of refugee destinations, hosting more than 1.6 million, mostly from neighboring Afghanistan Refugees, Internally Displaced and Asylum Seekers over Time (In Million and In % of Total -2013) 20 5% 6% 60% 30% 19 5% 6 2 20 16 5% 1 6% 5 2 60% 26% 19 20 5% 16% 20% 5 29% 4 3 32 2 3 40% 32 1 36% 4 34 25% 30% 4 36 26% 29% 4 34 2 3 4 35 2 29% 4 36 19% 29% 49% 43 1 2 56% Other Asylum Seekers Refugees Internally Displaced 2001 2002 2003 2004 2005 2006 2007 2008 2009 2010 2011 2012 2013 Top Countries of Origin of Refugees, Asylum Seekers and Internally Displaced (In Million, 2014) Top Destination Countries for Refugees and Asylum Seekers (In Million, 2014) Internally Displaced Refugees & Asylum Seekers Pakistan 1 Syria 1.62 6.5 2 3.08 1.5 0.7 Afghanistan 2 2.77 0.85 1.12 Lebanon 9% 1.1 Somalia 9% 1.12 0.04 0.81 0.98 Iran 2.1 Sudan 5% 0.70 0.01 059 0.89 Turkey 2.6 Democratic Republic of Congo 0.57 0.06 0.59 0.75 Jordan 6% 1.9 Iraq 0.48 # Refugees and Asylum Seekers (In Million) 0.04 % 0.02 Share of Total Refugees and Asylum Seekers (In %) 0.46 Source- Upper and Lower Charts: Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) Looking Ahead 173
WITH RISING CONFLICTS, THE NUMBER OF ASYLUM SEEKERS LOOKING FOR REFUGE IN EUROPE HAS RISEN SHARPLY but so has the number of deaths of migrants crossing the Mediterranean In 2014, asylum applications to rich countries reached their highest level in more than 20 years, with some 866,000 applications lodged, a 45% increase from the previous year, according to the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees. The main destination for asylum seekers has been ; the biggest refugee sources have been Africa and the Middle East. This has turned the Mediterranean Sea into an essential conduit for many people seeking to escape from conflict or human rights abuses.

MIGRANTS REMITTANCES TO DEVELOPING COUNTRIES WILL APPROACH $ 600 BILLION IN 2015; transfer costs remain an issue, especially in Africa Global remittances in 2014 were more than double the level of official development assistance. Least Developed Countries receive more remittances than FDI. The cost of sending remittances is declining across all regions but remains very high in Africa.
