Introduction Since summer 2007, the United States of America has been immersed into one of the worst financial crisis of all time. All sectors of the economy have successively been affected.

Abstract The aim of this article is to suggest a new evaluation of Morocco’s attractivity for the foreign capital. This evaluation is called “relative attractivity/firm ex post”.

brain drain ; migration ; développement ; capital humain. ABSTRACT. In this paper we use a stylised model of brain-drain migration to analyse the different channels through which skilled emigration affects the sending countries in a harmonised analytical framework. For each possible channel (the drain effect, temporary migration, incentives to educate thanks to migration prospects, the impact of workers’ remittances, and network effects) we derive the conditions necessary for a long-run, beneficial
