According to recent reports, remittances sent by overseas Filipino workers grew significantly in November, reaching $2.91 billion. This increase reflects the resilience and continued contribution of the Filipino diaspora to the domestic economy. Remittances constitute a vital source of foreign exchange and household income for many Filipino families, supporting consumption, education, and healthcare.
