Periodic Table of Remittances

After evaluating lots of candidates, burning the midnight oil, I’m proud to publish, what I think is the world’s first Periodic Table of Remittances (Money Transfer). The table provides a glance into the Remittances world and the players who are prominent.
The table can be shared as long as the original table is untouched and due credit is given.

Good report, last time I saw some research on this segment of the financial markets was from a exchange company in UK. This is very comprehensive work.
