new laws/regulations could cost them more to operate. the immigration situation is not helping either, companies are not able to hire many of them, so you can expect lesser number to send money home. the increase competions from other new technologies continue to stack up.  ATM, Paypal, Bank Transfer, increased local/small shop and Lot more different services, which are much cheaper and more convenient.
