Remittances affect Kosova’s Gross Domestic Product (GDP) through their impact on GDP’s main factor which is consumption. Since remittances constitute nearly 13% of Kosova’s GDP, this research is important because its focus is to understand the effect that Western Europe Countries have on Kosovo through remittances – especially through unemployment and household income.
