Do you know how many millions of euros the Albanian diaspora sends within the year?

Albanian immigrants send an average of 600m euros a year, Albinfo writes.

For every 100 euros, an Albanian pays 9.4 euros as a transfer commission, while in the region that figure is 7.2 euros.

In Switzerland, the cost of sending money through transfer agencies amounts to 25 per cent.

For Albanians who send money from Germany and Britain, the tariff is brought between 9.5 per cent and 10 per cent.

These are the fees that money transfer agencies apply, while transfers through banks are even more expensive.

The World Bank says Albania uses the most banks for sending money to the region.
