                    [Summary] => 



The Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP) said about $3 billion of remittances from overseas Filipino workers (OFWs) did not go through the formal banking system. 


This amount is on top of the BSP estimated actual fund transfers of $10.3 billion by the end of 2005 from OFWs. 


There are about six million OFWs and migrants deployed abroad whose level of remittances are increasing yearly. These consist of caregivers and health workers, seafarers, service staff, professional/technical workers and production related workers.
