Abstract: Using data from 87 countries, we show that proximity of recipient countries to the economic centres of the world, a diversified source of international tourist supplies, and larger share of GDP as tourism revenues are conducive to lower volatility in tourism receipts. We also find that the volatility of tourism revenues is quite dispersed across countries and intensifies when tourism flow originates from a specific set of countries.
