Abstract

Numerous studies demonstrate that trade patterns are significantly influenced by the population's national origin structure. The link may be weaker for emerging nations since their economies are undergoing fundamental changes. However, migration policy may be developed more effectively to assist the nation's economic growth if it takes into account the influence of migratory flows on commerce. We investigate the idea that, compared to developed nations, emerging countries see a reduced influence from migratory movements on international commerce. We use quarterly data from 1990 to 2003 on Bolivia's imports, exports, and migration. In accordance with earlier research, we use the gravity equation approach. An attrition coefficient for migrant stocks and inflows is the basis for the estimate of the migration data. We account for GDP in addition to the standard trade cost factors of pricing, distance, and trading partner proximity. We contrast our estimate findings with those of earlier research on wealthy nations. The format of the paper is as follows. Based on previously published research, the relationship between commerce and migration is first examined. We then go on to discuss trade and migration trends in India. Third, we describe the data and techniques that were employed. Lastly, we provide the estimate findings and draw some inferences.
