DETERMINANTY TRANSFERÓW PIENIĘŻNYCH OD MIGRANTÓW ZE SZCZEGÓLNYM UWZGLĘDNIENIEM CZASU TRWANIA MIGRACJI NA PRZYKŁADZIE MIGRACJI POLAKÓW DO WIELKIEJ BRYTANII I IRLANDII PO 2004 R.

In this article the remittance behavior of Polish immigrants to the UK and Ireland is studied. Macro and micro datasets allow to observe this phenomenon from both global and individual perspective. The magnitude of remittances is shown in the first part of the paper. In the second part, theories explaining motivations to remit are presented. This is followed by empirical analysis of decision to remit (who is more probable to remit?) and size of transfers (who will remit more?) on the example of Polish migrants to the UK and Ireland.
